Yvette Herrell introduced legislation Thursday that ensures federal workers return to the office in person and would not allow the Biden administration to make telework for those workers permanent.<\/p>\n<p>The Stopping Home Office Work\u2019s Unproductive Problems Act, also known as the SHOW UP Act, would prevent the Biden administration from making telework for the federal workforce permanent until it provides Congress with its plan to avoid the negative effects of working remotely. The bill has nine original cosponsors.<\/p>\n<p>The lawmakers say they would like to make sure the federal workforce is back and argued telework has caused issues, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/05\/13\/wilford-the-irss-delays-are-costing-you-money\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">delays at the IRS<\/a> and veterans struggling to access their benefits. Republicans are also worried that the federal workforce is not providing services to Americans on time and that Americans who are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox5atlanta.com\/news\/passport-delays-could-mean-canceled-vacations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">seeking<\/a> passport renewals are experiencing delays.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Republicans are concerned about veterans and social security beneficiaries not being able to have in-person meetings and their issues addressed by civil servants in the proper time.<\/p>\n<p>The bill comes as Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi let House members know Friday that they could <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/democrats\/pelosi-work-from-home-forever\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">continue to work from home<\/a> and continue to vote remotely until June 28.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmericans are struggling to receive their tax refunds, veterans are having difficulties accessing their benefits, and it\u2019s all because of backlogs created by the Biden administration\u2019s expanded telework policies for federal bureaucrats. It is long overdue for the federal workforce to return to work in person. The federal government exists to serve the American people and Congress has a responsibility to ensure federal agencies are meeting their missions,\u201d Herrell told the Daily Caller before introducing the legislation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ THE BILL HERE FIRST:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View (DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) -- Telework_02_xml (004)[37] on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/574968690\/DAILY-CALLER-OBTAINED-Telework-02-xml-004-37#from_embed\">(DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) \u2014 \u2026<\/a> by <a title=\"View Henry Rodgers&#039;s profile on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/user\/527927298\/Henry-Rodgers#from_embed\">Henry Rodgers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m proud to introduce the SHOW UP Act, which will rein in President Biden\u2019s attempt to keep federal bureaucrats out of the office.
