Plain-English Summary

This bill would prevent federal employees from holding two government jobs at the same time, a practice sometimes called "dual hatting." The restriction would apply to civilian workers across federal agencies and is intended to ensure that government employees dedicate their full attention to a single position rather than splitting their time between multiple roles.
