Shifting the Civil Service Landscape

This chapter examines the America First Policy Institute's alignment with former President Trump's views, particularly regarding the reform of the civil service. It discusses the portrayal of federal employees as obstacles to the agenda and explores potential changes to civil service protections, including the transformation of career workers into at-will employees. Additionally, the chapter raises concerns about the implications of these policies on national security and the legal challenges that may arise from executive actions in this area.
