What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill brings back a process, set to be in effect through 2026, that lets the President send plans to Congress for reorganizing parts of the executive branch, with Congress required to consider those plans on a fast track. It expands the reasons a President can propose such plans, including cutting the number of federal workers, getting rid of unnecessary rules, and shutting down government operations seen as not serving the public interest. The bill removes old limits that prevented these plans from creating, renaming, abolishing, transferring, or combining executive departments and independent agencies. However, it adds a new rule saying that no plan can result in more federal workers or higher government spending than before.
