On Friday, the Trump administration moved to weaken the federal embargo on government employees who show support to President Trump while working, with the idea that they should be allowed to wear campaign tools and remove the role of the independent audit council in police violations.
The Special Adviser’s Office, an agency participating in the implementation of restrictions, has announced the changes in the interpretation HatchingA law was placed during the depression era to ensure that the federal workforce is working free of political influence or coercion. Reviews, the resurrection of the rules that Mr. Trump Appear At the end of his first term, but President Joseph R. Biden Junior, the amazing scene can allow government officials wearing Trump buttons or hats “making America great again.”
Critics said that the law was largely without the teeth, and officials in the Trump administration were routinely accused of violating it, with a little punishment. The changes do not completely back down from the restrictions of the act of hatching, but doing this in a way that is uniquely beneficial to Mr. Trump: still visible support for the candidates and their future campaigns are prohibited, but support for the current office holder is not.
Experts say this step may not violate the law, because it will not affect the outcome of the elections. But he threatens to politicize the government’s professional workforce, which Mr. Trump was seeking to bend to his will as he tests the limits of the executive.
“This is a truly dark day,” Cathlein Clark, a professor of law at Washington University in Saint -Louis and government ethics lawyer. She said that the president should work to ensure that the public knows that the government is for everyone.
“When you go to the Social Security Office, and if she is still open, you will deal with the same whether or not you have voted for the current president,” she said, referring to the efforts of the government since Mr. Trump returned to the Oval Office.
Ms. Clark said: “This is another example of the seizure of Trump and controlling the authority of the federal government, as if it were his own system, rather than admitting that he has a role he plays as a public employee,” said Ms. Clark.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Special Advisers Office issued other opinions on Friday that will weaken law enforcement, by removing an independent review council, the Warmwood Systems Protection Council, from its role in reviewing the claims of violations. The office – which was historically independent, is now led by the Trump official after Mr. Trump launched his leader, and the start of a bitter court battle – will review the accusations and send the results to the White House, which is unlikely to take action against its supporters.
The opening law was valid for more than 80 years. The presidents were supposed to prevent the distribution of care jobs and the filling of the administration with the political conflict.
Allowing the display of the workplace with support as Mr. Trump takes steps to increase the number of political appointed aid in the federal government, which will allow presidents to install more loyalists in higher positions – the thing that the authors’ authors have sought to prevent.
Federal employees were subjected to great pressure, for fear that they would be expelled as the administration would demobilize collective workers.
Richard W., a professor at the University of Minnesota Law Faculty and a chief ethical lawyer at the White House, George W. Bush, said the directors appointed by Trump can wander in the wear of Trump’s equipment.
“I think it is destructive to allow this,” he said.
“Keeping partisan policy outside government services has benefited from all Americans, especially taxpayers, for generations,” Hampton Delinger, the sure -president of the Senate, told a special advisor until Mr. Trump launched him.
During the first Trump administration, many of his senior advisers were accused of violating the law, including Killian ConwayWhite House advisor, who was martyred as a “perpetrator of the perpetrator.” Mr. Trump refused to shoot her.
