Several bills offered in previous years that did not reach final enactment have been reintroduced. One plan (HR-2721 and S-1180) would require OPM to establish an office to advocate for more diversity in the senior executive ranks while setting new standards for training and professional development. Another (HR-2978) would allow dependent children and grandchildren to remain covered under FEHB family coverage up to age 25, rather than the current age 22 cutoff.
