Capping Appointed Positions Act
To limit the total number of schedule C and schedule G positions in the Federal Government, and for other purposes.
This bill aims to set a limit on the number of Schedule C and Schedule G positions in the Federal Government. These positions are typically high-ranking and mid-level executive roles, respectively. By controlling these numbers, the bill hopes to manage government staffing and potentially reduce costs.
The bill would primarily affect federal agencies by restricting the number of people they can hire for these roles. This could lead to changes in how agencies operate, potentially impacting their efficiency and effectiveness. However, the exact impact will depend on how agencies adjust to these new limits.
As of July 15, 2026, the bill was introduced in the House and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. It is still in its early stages, and further action will depend on the committee's review and recommendations.
