STRAFE Act

HR 10053, the STRAFE Act, requires federal employees in senior roles (GS-15 or above, Senior Executive Service, or specific high-level positions in intelligence, defense, law enforcement, diplomacy, or regulatory enforcement) to complete annual training on not obstructing presidential directives. The training explains prohibited activities, how to identify them, and how to report violations to political appointees. Agencies must establish reporting processes for such violations and submit semi-annual reports to the White House detailing incidents and investigations. Violations could result in disciplinary action (up to removal), fines up to $1,000, or both.
