A Schedule F appointment was a job classification in the excepted service of the United States federal civil service that existed briefly at the end of the Trump administration during 2020 and 2021. It would have contained policy-related positions, removing their civil service protections and making them easy to fire. It was never fully implemented, and no one was appointed to it before it was repealed at the beginning of the Biden administration.

The purpose of the provision was to increase the president's control over the federal career civil service. While proponents stated this would increase flexibility and accountability, it was widely criticized as providing means to retaliate against federal officials for political reasons. It was estimated that tens or hundreds of thousands of career employees could have lost their civil service protections, increasing the number of political appointments by a factor of ten.

Since mid-2022, the 2024 Trump campaign's plan to reinstate the provision has attracted attention and commentary. Common criticisms include the threat to democracy and the functioning of government. In April 2024, the Biden administration adopted a regulation that would prevent most of the effects of a reinstatement of Schedule F, the repeal of which by a future administration would delay implementation by several months.

Characteristics

Justifications

The legal basis for the Schedule F appointment was a section of the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 (قالب:UnitedStatesCodeSub), which exempts from civil service protections federal employees "whose position has been determined to be of a confidential, policy-determining, policy-making or policy-advocating character". The provision had been little noticed and unused before its application by the Schedule F order.[1]

As for the constitutionality, proponents also point to the unitary executive theory as justification. Opponents note that the theory is not long-established or widely accepted, but is rather controversial.[2][3][4] Beyond disputing its constitutionality,[5][6][7][8] common criticisms include the idea that the theory leads to poor outcomes[9][5][10] and undermines democracy.[4][11][12][13] A few critics point to other countries where similar ideas of a more unitary executive have resulted in democratic backsliding, or to the vast majority of democracies (including US states and local governments) that purposefully diffuse executive power more widely, with positive results.[14][12][15][16]

Implementation

The stated purpose of the order was to increase flexibility in hiring and firing to improve performance management[17] and accountability.[18] The Civil Service Rules and Regulations would not have covered employees within the Schedule F classification,[17] including due process and possibly collective bargaining rights.[18] However, appointees could not have been fired based on certain protected statuses, such as whistleblower status, partisan affiliation, or for claiming discrimination or harassment.[18][19] It would also have streamlined hiring for these positions, since a competitive examination would not be required.[20](p. 2)

The executive order also provided transition procedures for transferring covered positions out of the competitive service into Schedule F, by which executive agency heads must petition the director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) with a list of positions to be converted with a written rationale. The OPM director had the sole power to decide whether to grant the petition.[17][21][22]

The Schedule F classification included "positions of a confidential, policy-determining, policy-making, or policy-advocating character not normally subject to change as a result of a Presidential transition".[17] They are distinguished from Schedule C appointments, which cover policy-making positions that do change with the presidential transition.[20](pp. 5–6) The executive order listed several characteristics of jobs that may fall under the Schedule F classification:[17]

  • substantive participation in advocacy, development, or formulation of policy, especially of regulations and guidance
  • substantive policy-related work in an agency or component that primarily focuses on policy
  • the supervision of attorneys
  • substantial discretion to determine how the agency exercises functions committed to it by law
  • working with non-public policy proposals or deliberations generally covered by deliberative process privilege, and either:
    • directly reporting to or regularly working with an individual appointed by either the president, or by an agency head paid at the GS-13 level or higher, or
    • working in the executive secretariat of the agency or component
  • conducting certain collective bargaining negotiations on the agency's behalf

According to OPM, these provisions were guidelines, as not all positions covered by them were required to be converted to Schedule F, and positions not covered by them may have been converted.[18][23] The provisions were broad enough to include many scientists, attorneys, regulators, public health experts, and others in senior roles. The estimated number of employees they covered ranged from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.[18]

History

Planning

According to reporting by Axios, the idea for the Schedule F appointment was devised by James Sherk, a member of the advisory Domestic Policy Council who was seeking ways to prevent career civil service employees from resisting President Trump's agenda. In January 2019, while searching through Title 5 of the United States Code, which contains provisions on civil service protections, he came across 5 U.S.C. § 7511, and brought it to the attention of the White House Counsel's Office.[1]

The executive order was drafted secretly over the following months and was completed by late spring of 2019. However, due to large agency workloads, it was decided to delay issuing it until 2020, which was further delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Trump was reportedly motivated by a desire to get even with recalcitrant officials after his first impeachment trial, which concluded in February 2020.[1]

Implementation

Schedule F was created by Executive Order 13957 on October 21, 2020.[17] Heads of all federal agencies were ordered to submit a preliminary list of positions that could be reclassified as Schedule F by January 19, 2021, the day before the next presidential inauguration, to John D. McEntee, the director of the Presidential Personnel Office,[24][20](p. 8) with the final list to be submitted on May 19, 2021.[20](p. 8)

By the January 19 deadline, two agencies had submitted their petitions to reclassify employees. The Office of Management and Budget submitted a list of 140 position types, of which 136 were approved by OPM, excluding four Presidential Management Fellow positions. These 136 position types would have applied to 415 employees out of the agency's total of 610 employees. Most of the affected employees were in program examination, digital services, and policy analysis positions.[20](pp. 13–16) Some positions, such as administrative assistants, office managers, and IT workers, were potentially not clearly policy-making positions.[25] The necessary human resource processing steps were not taken prior to the change in administration, and no one was actually reclassified. The International Boundary and Water Commission submitted a petition to reclassify five of its 234 employees, but the executive order was revoked before OPM could approve them.[20](pp. 13–16)

Seven other agencies stated to OPM that they needed more time to finalize their lists, but five of these had made draft lists that they were still reviewing. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission determined more than half of its positions met the criteria for reclassification, while the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Environmental Protection Agency, Federal Trade Commission, and OPM itself each had draft lists that would have reclassified around or less than 10% of their employees. Six agencies determined that they would not reclassify any positions: the Federal Maritime Commission, Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board, National Archives and Records Administration, National Transportation Safety Board, National Labor Relations Board, and AmeriCorps.[20](pp. 17–18)

Repeal and later developments

It was repealed by President Biden through Executive Order 14003 on January 22, 2021, the third day of his administration.[26][27] No employees had been moved to the new classification.[28][29]

In mid-2022, it was reported that Trump and his allies planned to reinstate the Schedule F provisions if he were elected to a second term,[1] including identifying around 50,000 workers who could be reclassified.[30] In March 2023, reinstatement of Schedule F was included at a top of a list of proposals from the Trump 2024 presidential campaign,[31] while Ron DeSantis had written approvingly of it in his book The Courage to Be Free.[32][33] The next month, it was reported that Project 2025, a coalition led by The Heritage Foundation, was preparing a personnel database that could be used to fill up to 20,000 potential Schedule F appointments in a future Republican administration.[34]

The Preventing a Patronage System Act was introduced at the beginning of the 117th Congress by Democrat Gerry Connolly of Virginia.[35][28] It was passed by the House in July 2022 as part of its version of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023.[36][37][38][39] However, it was removed from the final bill passed in December 2022.[30][40] A similar bill, the Saving the Civil Service Act, was introduced in the 118th United States Congress.[41]

In September 2023, the Biden administration proposed a regulation that would allow employees to keep existing job protections even if their positions were reclassified, preventing most of the effects of a reinstatement of Schedule F. While the regulation could be repealed by a future administration, it would delay any implementation by several months.[42][43] The rules were put into effect in April 2024.[25]

Response

انظر أيضاً: Unitary executive theory § Criticism

The creation of Schedule F was controversial. Critics feared a transition from a non-partisan government of subject-matter experts to one where partisan or presidential loyalty tests had a role in the hiring process.[18] At the time, it was estimated that tens or hundreds of thousands of career employees could lose their civil service protections including union representation,[18][44] and that it would increase the number of political appointments by a factor of ten.[45] Conversely, there was concern that political appointees of Trump, whose appointments are supposed to expire at the end of his term, could "burrow in" by being converted to positions with that are harder to fire.[46][44]

Rebecca Beitsch, writing for The Hill, wrote that unions were criticizing Trump's executive order as "the biggest change to federal workforce protections in a century, converting many federal workers to 'at will' employment."[47] The National Treasury Employees Union sued the administration in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia over the executive order, arguing that the administration did not properly justify it satisfied the legal requirement that the changes are "necessary" and as "conditions of good administration warrant."[48][49][needs update]

An official statement from Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) further stated that the executive order was "alarming".[47] The six authors, all infectious disease specialists, and epidemiologists, wrote:

We rely on the judgment of civil service experts to lead responses against the pandemic, inform the public, drive research, update guidance and review data supporting the use and distribution of vaccines and treatments to address the impacts of COVID-19. Replacing our scientists and public health experts with politically motivated staff will reduce our ability to respond, and reduce public confidence in our response, to COVID-19 and other public health crises.[50]

On October 26, 2020, Ronald Sanders, the chair of the Federal Salary Council, resigned. Writing that he was a "lifelong Republican" who prided himself on having "served three Democratic and three Republican presidents,"[51] Sanders sent a letter to John D. McEntee, Presidential Personnel Office director, characterizing Executive Order 13957, which had purported to hold federal employees more accountable, as a transparent attempt to fill the government with those loyal to the presidents at the expense of experts who are loyal to the Constitution and the rule of law.[52][53]

Rachel Greszler, a fellow at The Heritage Foundation, said: "I really think that the order is unlikely to affect many of those workers because the overwhelming majority of federal employees are upstanding individuals, they're providing valuable knowledge and experience that the managers in the agency heads don't want to lose. It's only those bad apples who are derelict in their duties, or they're outright trying to thwart their agency’s actions that would need to worry about their job security."[19]

Congress

House Democrats introduced a bill in the 116th Congress, the Saving the Civil Service Act, that would halt the executive order's implementation and restore any converted or fired Schedule F appointees back into competitive service positions.[48] There was also discussion of adding the same provisions to either the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 or a continuing resolution for fiscal year 2021 appropriations.[54] A coalition of 28 labor unions supported these provisions.[55] However, no provision regarding Schedule F was included in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021.[46]

House Democrats also requested documents about the creation of the executive order.[48]

Representative Don Beyer (D-VA) said, "it's an attempt to redefine the civil service as a political arm of the presidency rather than public servants who work for the American people", leading to "open cronyism that does not benefit the country, but the president."[18] Former federal human resources executive Jeff Neal called the order "the most direct assault on the career civil service since the passage of the Pendleton Act in 1883," which had created the merit-based federal civil service.[54]

Representative James Comer (R-KY) supported the change, saying that “our founding fathers never envisioned a massive unelected, unaccountable federal government with the power to create policies that impact Americans' everyday lives... President Trump has long pledged to take on this bureaucracy and restore power to the people by draining the swamp."[45]

Discussion

انظر أيضاً: Democratic backsliding in the United States § Unitary executive theory

Much of Project 2025 or Agenda 47 relies on Donald Trump reenacting Schedule F.[56]

Experts have argued that it would create chaos in the civil service, which was overhauled in the Carter administration to have a more professional workforce and end political bias and the corruption of the spoils system.[56][57][58]

Others have argued it threatens American democracy.[56][59][60][58] Dean Obeidallah goes further by arguing that requiring government workers to swear loyalty oaths to the president and not the Constitution is a common authoritarian tactic.[61]

Turning devoted public servants into mere servants of their master and by privileging presidential desires over institutional expertise and independence, the theory risks turning the chief executive into an absolute monarch.

UPDATE: I perhaps should have mentioned the oft-made argument that maintaining a unitary executive—even when it comes to powers beyond the scope of the original meaning of the Constitution—is desirable because it enhances political accountability. Even if true, this claim is about what is pragmatically desirable, not about the text and original meaning of the Constitution. But the claim is dubious even on its own terms. The greater the scope of executive power, the harder it is for rationally ignorant voters to keep track of more than a small fraction of it. Moreover, it becomes difficult to figure out how to weigh the president's performance in one area against what he does in others (assuming there is variation in quality, as will often be the case). It is therefore unlikely that concentrating a vast range of power in the hands of one person does much to enhance accountability.

The unitary executive theory provides a veneer of legal authority for an authoritarian-inclined president to engage in a range of anti-democratic behaviors. By the time George W.

Indeed, partial unbundling of executive authority is the norm rather than an exception in virtually all levels of non-national government units in the United States, of which there are more than 80,000. Authority that the governor or mayor would otherwise exercise is frequently given to a specific state or local officer. Often these officers are directly elected by the public. Other times they are elected by the legislature; other times still, they are appointed by another state official.

'Under the previous regime, often referred to as the spoils system, both political parties were giving out government jobs on the basis of patronage,' Manners said. 'They would reward loyal party members with cushy government jobs and we ended up with a situation where you had not only corruption, but you just had a wasteful, ineffective government with people on the payroll who didn't have particular expertise in the role.' Manner, who has examined the legal structure of independent agencies, said she finds it somewhat ironic that those who now want to get rid of these agencies are using the same language, describing them as wasteful, inefficient and intrusive.
