What it does
The bill would amend federal law to prohibit federal employees from using official work time—time paid by taxpayers—for activities related to labor union business, requiring such activities to be performed only during non-duty status. It specifically targets Section 7131 of Title 5 of the United States Code, replacing its current provisions with a ban on official time for union-related tasks. The change affects all federal employees engaged in union representation or organizing during work hours, eliminating a long-standing practice known as “official time.” The bill’s sole purpose is to end the use of taxpayer-funded time for labor union activities by federal workers.
