A resolution demanding the immediate reinstatement of all veteran Federal employees involuntarily removed or otherwise dismissed without cause since January 20, 2025.
This Senate resolution (SRES 166) demands the immediate reinstatement of veteran federal employees who were dismissed without cause since January 20, 2025. It directly affects veterans employed across the federal government, including those in critical roles like Veterans Crisis Line workers, following mass dismissals announced by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The resolution requires affected employees to be reinstated with full back pay and clear communication about their positions and next steps. As a non-binding Senate resolution, it expresses the chamber’s position but does not create new law.
