Saving DOE’s Workforce Act

HR 2207, the Saving DOE’s Workforce Act, prohibits the Department of Energy from implementing layoffs or involuntary separations of employees until after Congress enacts full fiscal year 2026 funding. It specifically protects federal workers in competitive service positions, career roles in excepted service, and senior executive leadership roles. The bill allows separations only for documented misconduct, inefficiency, or delinquency following standard disciplinary procedures, without affecting existing personnel authority.
