Joni Ernst: Cut The Pay Of Feds Who Work From Home

September 6, 2023 Politics, Republicans

Via email from Sen. Joni Ernst:



To hold Washington accountable, Sen. Joni Ernst is requesting an investigation of every major department and agency to determine the impact of telework on the delivery and response times of services, how much taxpayer money could be saved by consolidating unused office space, and what steps have been taken to adjust bureaucrats’ location-based salaries for those who have relocated and chosen to remain out of the office.

Ernst would also like to know what the actual worksite attendance rate is for government employees at each agency. “Growing up on a farm, I know what working from home actually means,” Senator Joni Ernst said.

“It’s not fair to let the responsibilities of running an agency—and the country—fall on the shoulders of the hardworking public servants who are showing up while others are out golfing on the taxpayer’s dime. Frustrated Americans are being put on hold while too many federal employees are phoning it in. I’m calling out federal employees who refuse to answer the call of duty to return to work on behalf of taxpayers, veterans, seniors, and our great nation. It’s time to get back to work.”
