Reinstate Schedule F
What the document says“It should be reinstated, but SES responsibility should come first.”
Restoring Accountability to Policy-Influencing Positions Within the Federal Workforce
2025-01-20 · 90 FR 8625

What This Is
An independent reference project. It indexes the documents. It does not take sides in them.
- Independent. Not connected to The Heritage Foundation, any party, campaign or advocacy group. Nobody is paying for a conclusion.
- No verdicts. Nothing here says whether a proposal is good or bad. A supporter and an opponent should both find this accurate.
- Three things, never blurred. What a document says. What has actually happened. What people claim about either.
- Checkable. Quotations are verified against the source before publishing, citations come from government records, and every change is public.
