March 27, 2015 (FRCBlog.com) — H.R. 5628, the Eliminating Pornography from Agencies Act, would prohibit government employees from accessing pornography on the job. This Act passed out of committee this week and might seem unnecessary.
Wouldn’t that kind of activity get you fired? Not in the world of the Federal Government. An EPA employee who watched as much as six hours a day of explicit content was still on the government payroll a year after being caught. It is sad that our government has become so bloated that it can’t hold employees responsible for dereliction of their duties.
Click “like” if you say NO to porn!
Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) sponsored the bill to fix this problem. Taxpayers shouldn’t be on the dime for something so harmful to society. Let’s hope Rep. Meadows’ bill reaches the President’s desk.
