Make it easier for injured federal employees to receive workers compensation benefits.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with Improving Access to Workers’ Compensation for Injured Federal Workers Act?
The effort to improve workers compensation benefits for federal employees is stalled with H.R. 3170, which has seen no action since December 3, 2025. The House of Representatives must now schedule a floor vote to move the bill forward, but limited time for debate remains the primary constraint. While reaching the Union Calendar is a significant milestone that most bills do not achieve, the lack of progress since December 2025 suggests the proposal faces difficulty in securing a spot on the busy legislative agenda.
