HR 1571 United States House · 119th Congress

Bureaucratic Labor Adjustment and Downsizing Effort Act

This bill eliminates non-essential executive branch federal positions that would be subject to furlough during budget gaps. It automatically abolishes unoccupied positions on enactment day and occupied positions when they become vacant (e.g., due to retirement or separation). The law also prevents new positions from being designated as "excepted from furlough" and blocks funding for any abolished role after the effective date. It directly affects civil service employees in the executive branch whose roles are deemed non-essential under this standard.
