Plain-English Summary

The bill would allow the federal government to offer buyout packages and early retirement incentives to encourage federal employees to voluntarily leave their jobs, helping agencies reduce their workforce without layoffs. This would give workers who meet certain age and service requirements the option to take a financial incentive to resign early, while allowing the government to manage staffing levels and potentially save money. The measure affects federal employees across all agencies and departments.
