Nonilex<a href="https://masto.ai/tags/OPM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OPM</a>'s new rule—dubbed "Schedule Policy/Career"—will allow many career <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/CivilServants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CivilServants</a> to be classified as "<a href="https://masto.ai/tags/AtWill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AtWill</a>" employees, making them easier to remove.<a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> aides argue they need greater flexibility to fire civil servants who are *underperforming*, engaging in *misconduct* or *undermining* Trump's policy plans.<a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#law</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/labor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#labor</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ScheduleF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScheduleF</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/CivilService" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CivilService</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Project2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Project2025</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/autocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#autocracy</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ExecutivePower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ExecutivePower</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/AbuseOfPower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AbuseOfPower</a>

Nonilex“That incident was a case study in them going after the people who do the <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#science</a>,”…Clement said.In April, OPM finalized a rule that will allow federal employees to keep their existing <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/JobProtections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JobProtections</a> & right to <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/DueProcess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DueProcess</a>, including the right to appeal a reassignment or firing. The rule overturns a <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> directive, known as <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ScheduleF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScheduleF</a>, that allowed his admin to force out thousands of career employees by changing their status to <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/AtWill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AtWill</a> workers who could be fired w/o due process.<a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#law</a>

NonilexThe rule addresses a move <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> tried to make late in his presidency by issuing an EO known in shorthand as <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ScheduleF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScheduleF</a>. It would have empowered his admin to strip <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/JobProtections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JobProtections</a> from <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/career" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#career</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/federal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#federal</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/employees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#employees</a> — who are supposed to be hired based on <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/merit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#merit</a> & cannot be arbitrarily fired. While the EO said agencies should not hire or fire Schedule F employees based on <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/political" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#political</a> affiliation, it effectively would have made these employees more like political appointees who can be <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/fired" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fired</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/AtWill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AtWill</a>.

Hrefna (DHC)Gahhhhhh, once again, for those in the back:<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/AtWill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AtWill</a> does not mean "they can fire you for any or no reason." It means that they can fire you for a lot of things, but firing you for engaging in a protected activity, being in a protected class, etc is still illegal.<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RightToWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RightToWork</a> has to do with <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#union</a> security clauses. Nothing else. It doesn't affect your rights beyond that item. At all. Please stop conceding defeat and encouraging others to concede before even starting.
