No Violent Criminals in the Federal Workforce Act

This bill would bar any person with a final conviction for a crime of violence, from any federal, state, or local court, from holding a federal civil service job. Federal employees who receive such a final conviction would be removed from their positions. The federal government could not sign contracts with such a person or with a business where such a person works on the contract, serves as an officer or director, or holds a controlling ownership stake. Agencies would have to include a contract clause barring such persons from working on the contract, and these rules would apply to existing contracts too, though the Director of the Office of Management and Budget could grant waivers.
