We are working to ensure that no federal employee is ever required to pass a political loyalty test to get hired, promoted, or keep their job. This legislation aims to promote fairness and protect government jobs from political bias.

Let's keep government jobs about service, not who you stan for on Capitol Hill.

The last thing we need is a government run by political yes-men who can’t think for themselves.

Fair hiring? Sure. But don’t expect government to run smoothly without some allegiance to the principles that built this country.

You can’t build a just government by loyalty tests—only by fair and equal opportunity.

Taking politics out of hiring might just save us from turning every job into a partisanship game.

Political loyalty tests? Sounds like a ticket to a government echo chamber, not democracy.

No loyalty tests means maybe we hire folks for talent, not their Twitter feeds—crazy idea, right?

Loyalty tests are a slippery slope, but so is punishing patriots for standing up for their beliefs.

left-leaning 09/16/2025

If loyalty tests were good, we'd already have a bureaucracy that actually works for the people, not party bosses.
