Special Government Employees Transparency Act of 2025
The Special Government Employees Transparency Act of 2025 limits how long individuals can serve as special government employees (SGEs) in the executive branch to 130 days within any 365-day period. If an SGE exceeds this limit, their agency must reclassify them as a regular civil service employee within 30 days and provide written notice about their new status and appeal rights. The bill also creates a public database listing key details - including name, pay, agency, and dates - of "covered" SGEs (those with duties comparable to GS-11 level or higher, not on advisory committees, and not full-time students). Additionally, agencies must publicly post financial disclosure reports for these covered SGEs, excluding certain reports or national defense information, through existing federal disclosure procedures.
