Dr. Rand Paul Praises Trump Administration Actions to Restore Accountability in the National Security Bureaucracy
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Tonight, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) spoke on the Senate floor in opposition to Amendment 1466, offered by Senator Alsobrooks, which would undermine President Trump's Executive Order exempting national security agencies from federal collective bargaining.
Dr. Paul highlighted that federal employees already receive more protections and benefits than their private sector counterparts. He emphasized the importance of ensuring federal employees are not empowered to hold national security hostage for union demands.
Referencing recent reports, Dr. Paul cited the February revelation that over 100 intelligence officers had used official government channels to engage in obscene and inappropriate conversations. He praised Director Tulsi Gabbard's swift action to fire those involved and warned that such accountability would have been impossible had the individuals been union-protected.
