Section 9901.514 Non-citizen hiring: Since the NSPS proposed regulations published in the Federal Register seem to be just enabling regulations which are vague and generalized without specific detail on how each rule or regulation will be implemented with proper checks and balance or by an independent arbitrator in case a grievance is filed, federal employees and the Congress do not have enough information to determine whether the proposed regulations are fair or not. Worse still, the NSPS will give the right to the DoD to appoint non-citizens to certain positions in the excepted service, thus displacing ordinary U. S. citizens who have to spend the time and effort to apply for federal jobs through the normal application process. With the talents in the U. S. population, the vague NSPS proposed regulations is an insult to the intelligence and capabilities of ordinary U. S. citizens. Moreover, the practice of hiring non-citizens within the DoD will open the floodgate for highly possible exploitation of those non-citizen employees by our adversaries through bribery or blackmail and threat to the safety of their family members especially those residing in foreign countries. As a result, more American lives will be compromised and jeopardized. I demand the Congress to tell the DoD to eliminate the proposed provision to hire non-citizens in the DoD, and eliminate the current vague and ambiguous NSPS proposed regulations but provide a genuine detailed NSPS proposed regulations for the Federal employees, union, and Congress to review in detail and determine what is best for the Government and Federal workers.
