The Federal Election Commission has announced the designation of specific positions within the agency as confidential, policy-determining, policy-making, or policy-advocating roles. This action is in compliance with an executive order requiring agencies to identify such positions and ensure they are not typically affected by changes in presidential administrations. The roles identified include the Staff Director, General Counsel, Inspector General, and Director of Congressional and Intergovernmental Affairs. These designations were published in the Federal Register as mandated.
Simple Explanation
The Federal Election Commission is picking some special jobs, like the Staff Director and General Counsel, to help make important rules without changing when a new president comes in. But they didn't say much about why they picked these jobs or what rules they need to follow.
