Rep. Sarah Elfreth introduced the Protect Our Probationary Employees Act on Monday .

The bill aims to clarify the regulations for the federal probationary period.

If it’s enacted, the bill would cover any probationary terminations that occur throughout the Trump administration.

The Protect Our Probationary Employees Act would protect probationary federal employees.

The American Federation of Government Employees and the National Treasury Employees Union both expressed support for the bill.

“I fear that the way that we were terminated so suddenly meant that not all of the consequences can be thought out. That’s why we’re here today ,” Maddie Hollis said.
