Dismantling Double Dippers Act of 2025

United States119th CongressS-2953Senate
Updated: Sep 30, 2025

Summary

This legislation aims to prevent federal employees from simultaneously holding multiple civil service positions or receiving compensation through government contracts. It explicitly prohibits individuals serving as U.S. officers or employees from directly or indirectly holding more than one civil service position, entering into government contracts, or receiving financial benefits from such contracts. For knowing violations, the bill mandates that individuals must repay all amounts received with interest and be referred to the Department of Justice for investigation and potential criminal prosecution . Furthermore, agencies are required to notify their Inspector General of any suspected violations. To ensure accountability, the Office of Personnel Management Inspector General will conduct annual audits of personnel and payroll records to identify violations. These audits must cross-reference various employment data, include a risk-based review of telework and contractor positions, and quantify instances of violations, recovered amounts, and enforcement actions taken.
