Saving DOE’s Workforce Act

This bill, titled the "Saving DOE's Workforce Act," aims to institute a reduction in force moratorium at the Department of Energy. It prevents the Department from initiating or implementing any reduction in force until full-year appropriations for fiscal year 2026 are enacted into law. Furthermore, the Department is prohibited from conducting involuntary separations of specific employee groups, such as those in the competitive service or career appointees in the Senior Executive Service. The only exception to this rule is for cause based on charges of misconduct, delinquency, or inefficiency.
