Reorganizing Government Act of 2025

In plain language: Reorganizing Government Act of 2025   This bill revives expedited congressional consideration of certain Presidential plans to reorganize the executive branch, expands permissible plan purposes, and changes the prohibitions on plan content.   The bill reauthorizes through 2026 a currently expired authority that requires expedited congressional consideration of certain executive branch reorganization plans submitted by the President.    The bill also expands the purposes for which such reorganization plans may be undertaken, to include reducing the number of federal employees; eliminating unnecessary and burdensome rules, regulations, and other requirements; and eliminating government operations that do not serve the public interest. The bill removes the following prohibitions on the contents of such plans:  creating new executive departments or renaming existing executive departments;  abolishing or transferring executive departments or independent regulatory agencies or all of their functions; and consolidating executive departments or independent regulatory agencies or all of their functions. The bill also adds a new prohibition on content, specifying that any such plan may not create a net increase in federal workers or expenditures.
