We\u2019re as interested in retraining and re-skilling and redeploying as anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weichert admitted, however, that identifying efficiencies within federal agencies may in fact dislocate employees, but those dislocations would be included in the budget process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Federal employee unions, meanwhile, are less than trusting of administration promises that they are not out to target federal jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere\u2019s little reason to believe this reorganization plan is anything more than a scheme to eliminate essential programs and public-service jobs, reward or punish political appointees depending on their allegiance to the White House, and privatize government programs to reward political donors,\u201d said American Federation of Government Employees National President J. David Cox Sr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMost of this so-called reorganization plan, as reported in the media, targets domestic programs that have long been unpopular with anti-government ideologues: merging the Education and Labor departments, removing the food stamp and school meal programs from USDA, and breaking up the personnel agency that administers federal employee background investigations, retirement claims and benefits, and employment policies. The proposal to dismantle the Office of Personnel Management, particularly the plan to allow the Executive Office of the President to take over federal personnel policy, is a straightforward attempt to politicize the civil service.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cox cited <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federaltimes.com\/management\/2018\/05\/25\/trump-targets-feds-in-latest-series-of-executive-orders\" title=\"\" class=\"\" target=\"_blank\">recent executive orders<\/a> intended to cut down use of official time, make it easier to fire federal employees and that call for the renegotiation of union contracts with agencies as evidence of the administration\u2019s intent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OMB Director Mick Mulvaney even cited the executive orders as a part of the reorganization\u2019s overall objective for government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTaken together with his directives targeting federal workers, the reorganization plans being pushed through by President Trump are an unprecedented power grab and have nothing to do with improving the efficiency or effectiveness of government,\u201d said Cox.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Office of Management and Budget&#8217;s deputy
