## Summary

**Expand presidential reorganization authority to cover executive departments.** This bill would broaden what the President can reorganize and add new goals like cutting federal headcount, simplifying rules, and ending operations that do not serve the public interest. - Federal workers: The bill would add an explicit purpose to reduce the number of federal employees, which could lead to workforce reductions in affected departments. - Executive branch entities: The definition of covered entities would widen from "agencies" to include executive departments, offices, officers, independent establishments, and wholly owned corporations while excluding the Government Accountability Office and the Comptroller General. - Rules and regulated parties: Reorganization plans would prioritize amending rules and regulations to decrease compliance costs and remove burdensome requirements that affect businesses and other regulated parties. - Scope and limits: The bill would remove a prior prohibition on abolishing enforcement functions or statutory programs and it would update planning deadlines to December 31, 2026.
