Making Sense of the 2025 Trump Federal Workforce Executive Orders – February 11, 2025

Each presidential administration brings its own priorities and policies to the White House, but the speed with which the Trump Administration has issued Executive Orders regarding the Federal workplace is unprecedented.

In this 60-minute review, FELTG President Deborah J. Hopkins will provide up to-minute guidance on what several new Federal workplace-related Executive Orders cover and how to ensure compliance with each.

Attendees will learn the details related to returning to in-person work, abolishing DEI programs, accountability, and merit-based hiring, as well as guidance on how to “formulate appropriate and effective civil rights policies for the Executive Branch” and “advance the policy of equal dignity and respect,” as required under the new Executive Orders.

Learning objectives

• Comply with all Executive Orders issued by the new administration.
• Identify the changes that need to be made immediately.
• Recognize what is covered under the new Executive Orders – and what is not.

Executive Orders and Memoranda discussed will include:

• Return to In-Person Work
• Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity
• Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing
• Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government
• Restoring Accountability to Policy-influencing Positions within the Federal Workforce
• Plus more
