Ernst introduced on Thursday the Decentralizing and Reorganizing Agency Infrastructure Nationwide to Harness Efficient Services, Workforce Administration, and Management Practices Act, otherwise known as the DRAIN THE SWAMP Act. The bill would direct the Office of Management and Budget to relocate at least 30% of all federal workers headquartered in the capital around the country.
