                          FEDERAL WORKER NDAs

  (Mr. SUBRAMANYAM asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SUBRAMANYAM. Mr. Speaker, as I was saying before, what do you do 
when people in your administration constantly break the law? Do you 
clean house of all corruption and self-dealing or increase transparency 
and accountability?
  Well, this administration decided to go the opposite direction and 
just announced a plan last week to require all Federal workers to sign 
NDAs.
  The new message: If you see something, don't say something, even if 
that something is against the law.
  These NDAs aren't just meant to cover sensitive, internal 
deliberations or classified information.
  They apply to nearly everything going on inside the administration, 
even the illegal stuff.
  This is about silencing whistleblowers.
  This is about punishing people who speak out about waste, fraud, and 
abuse.
  This is about putting loyalty to the President above service to our 
country and the Federal workforce.
  If you want to fight waste, fraud, and abuse in government, if you 
actually want to put our country first, then join me in fighting these 
Federal worker loyalty NDAs.
