I just checked and yes he did and it was referred to the Ed and Workforce Committee. The issue is that in the Senate legislation to do this would have to be filibuster proof meaning it needs 60 members/7Dems to vote with Republicans and that isnt going to happen.

Last year the House attempted to add an amendment to I think the spending bill but it could have been something else and the Amendment failed with 60 Republicans voting against.

It def needs to be reformed and that can be much more easily done than to try and abolish it at once. In my opinion a lot of this stuff we have seen recently be it this or the layoffs of probationary workers were not fully thought through. With the DOE they fired a bunch of our National Nuclear Stockpile Administrators... aka the people who are in charge of the current upgrades to our nuclear arsenal. Various Departments/Agencies also fired people that they had promoted under the Trump admin as well... just not fully baked moves.
