Plain Language Summary

# End the Deep State Act - Summary **What the Bill Would Do** The End the Deep State Act (HR 697) would make changes to how the federal government manages employees and their job protections. Based on its subjects, the bill would likely modify civil service rules, employee benefits, pay structures, and labor protections for federal workers. The specific mechanics would affect how the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) operates and could alter job security provisions for certain government employees. **Who It Affects** The bill would primarily impact federal government employees and the agencies that employ them. It could also indirectly affect the public by changing how federal agencies operate and make decisions.

The changes to "labor-management relations" suggest it could affect unions representing federal workers. **Current Status** As of now, HR 697 is in committee, meaning it hasn't advanced to a full House vote. The bill was introduced by Rep. Andrew Ogles (R-TN) in the 119th Congress. **Note:** Without access to the bill's full text, this summary covers the likely scope based on its title and listed subjects. For specific details about proposed changes, consulting the complete legislative text on Congress.gov would provide exact provisions and their impacts.
