What this amendment would do

Mr. Blumenthal, along with Ms. Rosen, submitted amendment SA 1277 to be proposed for the bill H.R. 1968. Folks in Washington need to be held accountable, and this amendment aims to block the use of any funds made available under the Act for any removal, demotion, or suspension of certain individuals serving in a position in the civil service.

To look out for the good of the people, it is important to know exactly who is covered under this protection. The amendment stops the use of funds for these employment actions against specific groups:

  • A veteran
  • A military spouse
  • A caregiver
  • A survivor
  • A member of a reserve component
