Facts First Act
This bill amends a 1888 law to change the removal process for the Commissioner of Labor Statistics. It requires the President to provide proof of "inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office" before removing the Commissioner, rather than allowing removal for any reason. The bill directly affects the Commissioner's position and the President's authority over that role. It does not create new programs or change labor statistics work.
