This bill renews the President’s power to propose plans to reorganize parts of the executive branch to cut costs and improve how government works. It adds clear goals: reduce the number of federal employees, remove or fix rules that are hard or costly to follow, and shut down government work that doesn’t serve the public interest. It also updates the law’s wording so it covers the whole executive branch (departments, agencies, independent establishments, and government-owned corporations), but not the Government Accountability Office or the Comptroller General. The authority to send these reorganization plans to Congress is extended through December 31, 2026. Any plan that would increase the total number of federal workers or overall spending is not allowed.
