Message: Biden Hides Public Records Showing How Much Taxpayers Are Paying Govt Unions
Limited data from the Small Business Administration showing that at that agency, official time hours rose from 3,200 in fiscal year 2020 to nearly 4,000 in fiscal year 2023, suggesting that across the government, official time expenses could be at record highs.
In 2014, the Washington Examiner found more than 500 employees who did no or almost no work for their actual government jobs, despite drawing a full-time salary from taxpayers, because of official time.
That includes 271 employees on full-time union release with the Department of Veterans Affairs, and 201 from the IRS.
