makes clear that"efforts to try to change the civil service aren't just Trump necessarily, and if Republicans take control of Congress following the midterms, this may very well go from idea to specific action."The Preventing a Patronage System Act would secure the civil service and protect federal employees from losing statutory job protections and due process rights.
"The renewed focus on the issue by congressional Democrats comes after reports that conservative activists and ex-Trump administration staffers have plans to immediately revive Schedule F under the next Republican president and have already identified 50,000 employees to threaten with termination," the outlet added."Trump, who is mulling another run at the White House, also explicitly endorsed the idea during a political rally last month.
