This legislation aims to prevent job losses within the Department of the Interior by instituting a reduction in force (RIF) moratorium across all its agencies and bureaus. The primary goal is to safeguard the Department's workforce during a critical period. Specifically, the bill prohibits the Secretary of the Interior from initiating or implementing any RIF. It also prevents the involuntary separation of employees in the competitive service, career employees in the excepted service, and career appointees in the Senior Executive Service, unless such separation is for cause related to misconduct, delinquency, or performance. This moratorium will remain in effect until full-year appropriations for the Department of the Interior for fiscal year 2026 have been enacted into law.
