Plain-English Summary

The proposal would eliminate the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency, a government watchdog organization that coordinates oversight activities across federal agencies to detect fraud, waste, and misconduct. This would affect federal employees and the public by potentially reducing coordination between the various inspectors general who investigate wrongdoing in different government departments. The bill is currently under review by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
