5 U.S.C. § 7311, titled “Loyalty and striking,” prohibits individuals from accepting or holding a position in the Government of the United States or the government of the District of Columbia if they meet specific criteria regarding disloyalty or labor actions.
The statute disqualifies individuals who:
1. Advocate the overthrow of the constitutional form of government.
2. Are members of an organization that they know advocates the overthrow of the constitutional form of government.
3. Participate in a strike, or assert the right to strike, against the Government of the United States or the government of the District of Columbia.
4. Are members of an organization of employees that they know asserts the right to strike against the Government of the United States or the government of the District of Columbia.
Violation of this section is criminalized under 18 U.S.C. § 1918. The provision was originally enacted in 1955 and consolidated in Pub. L. 89–554 on September 6, 1966.
