Federal officers and political work rules and enforcement
Federal officers face strict limits on political activity under the Civil Service Act of January 16 1883 and related regulations. Provisions ban officers and staff from soliciting or receiving political contributions and from using official position to influence politics. Violations carry fines up to 5000 and possible imprisonment. The Commission urges enforcement and warns officers to avoid partisan conduct in office.
