Rep. Steube: Reduce Bureaucracy, Codify President Trump’s Executive Orders Now
WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Representative Greg Steube (R-Fla.) today introduced the Federal Government Reform Act of 2025, a comprehensive bill that codifies five of President Trump’s executive orders addressing waste, restoring accountability, and modernizing the federal government.
“This bill locks in President Trump’s America First reforms and strikes at the heart of the bloated federal bureaucracy. For too long, unelected bureaucrats have operated without consequence, pushing regulations that punish the American people while protecting themselves. My bill puts a stop to it,” said Rep. Steube. “We are eliminating useless agencies, restoring accountability in the federal workforce, reducing overcriminalization, and modernizing government operations. To put it simply, this bill delivers the accountability that the deep state fears.”
The Federal Government Reform Act of 2025 codifies:
- The elimination of the outdated Federal Executive Institute (EO 14207)
- The modernization of Treasury payment systems (EO 14247)
- Stronger probationary periods for federal employees (EO 14284)
- A crackdown on overcriminalization in federal regulations (EO 14294)
- Efficiency upgrades at the Office of the Federal Register (EO 14295)
The bill strengthens the federal workforce by enforcing performance standards, improves regulatory transparency, and modernizes how the federal government serves the American people.
Rep. Steube serves on the House Ways and Means Committee and continues to lead on efforts to shrink government and defend taxpayers.
