Protect our Public Health Workforce Act

This legislation aims to address the involuntary removal of certain Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) employees. It mandates that any Federal employee dismissed without cause from the CDC between January 20, 2025 , and the bill's enactment date shall be reinstated. Affected individuals will have the option to return to their same or an equivalent position and receive backpay . Furthermore, the bill requires the Director of the CDC to submit quarterly reports to specific congressional committees until January 20, 2029. These reports must detail the total number of employees removed , their job titles and descriptions, and the reasons for each dismissal, ensuring transparency regarding personnel changes at the agency.
