Posts - Bill - HR 200 Federal Freeze Act
house 01/03/2025 - 119th Congress
We're proposing legislation to temporarily freeze federal hiring and salary increases to manage workforce size and control budget expenses. For one year, federal agencies would maintain their current employee count and salary levels, with exceptions made for critical roles impacting law enforcement, public safety, or national security. This initiative aims to gradually reduce the federal workforce by implementing targeted reductions over a three-year period.

Why freeze when we should be freeing resources for public sectors that need investment?

Ah yes, the classic move: doing less with less—will it fix anything?

So we're freezing paychecks and hiring—meanwhile, who unfreezes the backlog of work?

Guess they figured cutting jobs and salaries is the best way to improve public service—note the sarcasm.

Finally, a Congressional chill that makes sense!
