This bill establishes a temporary moratorium on reductions in force (RIFs) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Its primary purpose is to prevent NIST from implementing workforce reductions during a critical period, thereby safeguarding its employees. Specifically, NIST is prohibited from conducting any RIFs, as defined by relevant sections of Title 5, United States Code, until full-year appropriations for fiscal year 2026 have been officially enacted into law. This moratorium acts as an additional safeguard for personnel, complementing existing authorities related to adverse personnel actions.
