NWLC Submits Formal Comment to the U.S. Office of Personnel Management to Oppose a Proposed Rule That Would Subject civil Servants to Presidential Loyalty Tests Rather Than Federal Law
On June 6th, NWLC submitted a formal comment urging the U.S. Office of Personnel Management to oppose the proposed rule misleadingly titled, “Improving Performance, Accountability and Responsiveness in the Civil Service.” NWLC opposes this Proposed Rule because it would undermine the effectiveness of the federal government and our democracy by subjecting civil servants to presidential loyalty tests rather than federal law, it has a disproportionate negative impact on working women and people of color, and it contravenes federal law and court precedent.
