The "Reorganizing Government Act of 2025" amends Title 5 of the U.S. Code to streamline executive branch operations. It allows for the elimination of unnecessary government functions, prioritizes reducing the federal workforce, and aims to decrease regulatory compliance costs. The act extends executive reorganization authority through December 31, 2026, while preventing increases in federal employees or spending due to reorganization plans.

The Guidance Out Of Darkness (GOOD) Act mandates that federal agencies publish all guidance documents online in a single, designated location, ensuring transparency and accessibility for the public. This includes both new and existing guidance, with clear labeling and organization. The Act also requires agencies to maintain a record of rescinded guidance documents and report on agency compliance. The goal of this act is to increase government transparency.

This bill directs the Secretary of the Interior to remove all restrictions from a 3.62-acre parcel of land at the Paducah Memorial Army Reserve Center in Paducah, Kentucky. The land was previously conveyed to the City of Paducah via a quitclaim deed in 2012. This action would give the city full control over the land.

This bill allocates $32,864,613 from the House of Representatives' funds for the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform's expenses during the One Hundred Nineteenth Congress, with specific spending limits for each session. Payments must be made via vouchers approved by the Chairman and the House Administration Committee. All funds must be spent in accordance with the rules set by the House Administration Committee.

The SHOW UP Act of 2025 mandates that Executive agencies revert to pre-pandemic telework policies and levels from December 31, 2019, within 30 days. Further telework expansion is prohibited until agencies submit a study to Congress on the impacts of telework during the pandemic, along with a plan certified by the Director of the Office of Personnel Management. This plan must demonstrate positive effects on the agency's mission, cost reduction, and adequate resources for teleworkers, and agencies cannot implement telework expansion plans without the Director's certification. The Act aims to address concerns about the impact of expanded telework on agency performance, costs, and workforce distribution.
