Our government has suffered literally decades of rust, and then President Trump came in with a sledgehammer.

.@POTUS is to be commended for rescinding the Trump administration’s Schedule F executive order that would have undermined the merit-based, nonpartisan civil service system, eviscerated employee due process rights and replaced professionals with partisans.
@MaxStier - Max Stier
Schedule F would have taken us back to the corrupt and failed system of the 1880s. It represented an assault on our civil service, the core to our system of government and democratic institutions.

While the new administration has revoked a damaging executive order, it now also has an opportunity to deal with many of the underlying challenges facing our government and its workforce.

This includes taking steps to strengthen both political and career leadership, increase diversity in the leadership ranks, and bring into government more young people as well as experts in cybersecurity, technology, science and a host of other important professions.
