This proposed legislation aims to significantly alter how federal employees engage in labor organization activities. It specifically amends section 7131 of title 5, United States Code , which currently governs the use of official time. The bill mandates that any activities performed by a federal employee related to the business of a labor organization must occur exclusively during the employee's non-duty status . This change would effectively eliminate the practice of federal employees using paid work hours for union-related duties, ensuring such activities are conducted off the clock and preventing taxpayer funds from being used for these purposes.
