HR 7067 United States House · 119th Congress

No Violent Criminals in the Federal Workforce Act

This bill bars individuals convicted of violent crimes (as defined by federal law) from working in the federal government or for companies contracted by the government. It requires immediate removal of current federal employees with such convictions and prohibits federal agencies from hiring or contracting with individuals holding key roles (e.g., executives, owners, or workers on federal projects) who have been finally convicted of a violent crime. Exceptions may be granted by the Office of Management and Budget if termination would cause a "unique or undue burden." The law applies to all current and future federal contracts and uses existing legal definitions for "violent crime" and "final conviction."
