What this bill would do

The "VA Employee Fairness Act of 2025" is a bill introduced to change the laws regarding collective bargaining for employees within the Veterans Health Administration. It specifically amends Section 7422 of title 38, United States Code. The bill removes subsections (b), (c), and (d) of that section. It also redesignates subsection (e) as subsection (b). The bill ensures these changes do not affect the Secretary of Veterans Affairs' authorities on expedited hiring and incentive pay.
