Biden has emphasized the importance of a robust civil service, asserting that it is "essential to the success" of his administration. This philosophy underpins his actions to rebuild federal workforce levels.
During his tenure, Biden has overseen nearly a 6% increase in the permanent federal workforce, marking a significant turnaround compared to the previous administration that aimed to reduce agency personnel.
Jen Psaki articulated the administration's commitment to federal workers, stating that career civil servants are "the heart and soul of government" and necessary for functional agencies.
Biden enacted several pivotal pieces of legislation, including the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act, which helped expand agency workforces and improve hiring processes.
