Stop GREED Act of 2025 (VA Central-Office Executive Incentive Restrictions)
Current understanding
The Stop GREED Act of 2025 would prohibit the Department of Veterans Affairs from paying critical skill incentives to Senior Executive Service members and comparable central-office employees, while permitting case-by-case approvals and carving out exemptions for executives who also work at other VA facilities. The bill would require annual congressional reporting on any incentives paid. It targets perceived misuse of retention/recruitment bonuses at VA headquarters rather than the field.
