Protect America's Workforce Act

This legislation cancels a recent Executive Order that tried to exclude some federal jobs from normal labor‑management relations programs. It also blocks any federal spending to carry out that order. In plain terms, it stops the Executive Branch from limiting federal workers’ ability to be represented and negotiate at work.

It also protects current labor contracts. Any collective bargaining agreement that was in place on March 26, 2025, must stay fully in effect until it ends, as originally agreed.

• Who is affected: Federal employees, their unions, and executive branch agencies
• What changes: The Executive Order on exclusions has no force; no funds can be used for it; existing union contracts remain in place through their full term
• When: The blocked Executive Order was issued March 27, 2025; contracts in effect as of March 26, 2025 are protected
