The article discusses a new directive from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) requiring federal workers to provide a weekly list of their accomplishments by Monday night. This has sparked controversy, particularly regarding the vague consequences for non-responsiveness and the legality of the directives. Notably, a federal judge recently ruled against OPM's authority to impose mass firings in certain cases, and Senator Padilla criticized the emails for potentially misleading legislative branch employees. The situation underscores ongoing tensions between federal management practices and legal interpretations.
