Pipeline to Service Act

This bill creates new pathways for students to enter federal service through expanded recruitment and development programs. It requires the Office of Personnel Management to partner with colleges to recruit students, especially from underrepresented communities, and provides training on job applications and resumes. The bill establishes a minimum $15/hour internship pay rate (adjusted annually for inflation) and mandates demographic reporting on interns and Pathways Program participants. It also expands the Presidential Management Fellows Program by increasing positions by 200% from 2026-2031 and sets clearer pathways for conversion to permanent federal positions. The legislation aims to improve diversity and development opportunities for future federal employees.
