In the Media: New Rules for Federal Employee Appeals

On Sept. 2, 2026, OPM finalized rules drastically changing federal employees’ appeal rights. RIF (reduction-in-force), probationary, and suitability appeals will move out of MSPB into OPM’s new Merit System Accountability & Compliance process – without judicial review. Only actions framed as discrimination or whistleblower retaliation still reach federal court. In practice, an employee hit by a RIF notice before Sept. 2 can still appeal at MSPB, but one after that date will have their only recourse in OPM’s internal process.

Four OPM final rules took effect September 2, 2026. RIF, probationary, and suitability appeals leave MSPB for OPM's own process. The notice date decides which rules you get.

But when political considerations enter the workplace, it can sometimes be difficult to understand where lawful employment decisions end—and prohibited retaliation or discrimination begins.

Our latest blog examines political retaliation against federal employees and explores how the Hatch Act, whistleblower protections, and political-affiliation discrimination laws may come into play.
