FedSupport Webinar – Townhall: State of the Civil Service – 2025 Review and 2026 Horizons


The state of civil service has shifted significantly over the past year, marked by a series of policy changes, executive actions and legal developments. Join us on Wednesday, Jan. 28, from 6 to 7 p.m. EST for a timely town hall that will recap the rules and executive orders that have had the greatest impact on the civil service, where those policies stand today, and what federal employees and other stakeholders can expect ahead in 2026. 

In addition, hear directly from Democracy Forward, Rise Up: Federal Workers Legal Defense Network, and the Partnership for Public Service as they share their priorities and highlight new initiatives planned for the year ahead in support of the federal workforce.
