General Circular 2026-015 was recently issued to remind classified state employees of the “do’s and don’ts” of political activity. It is important to remember that the following restrictions apply to ALL elections – local, state, and federal. Article 10, Section 9 of the State Constitution and Civil Service Rules 14.1(e), (f), and (g) govern the political activities of classified state employees. The United States Supreme Court has recognized that a state has the right to limit the political activity of its workers to ensure the enforcement and application of laws for the common good and not for the good of one candidate or political party. The Supreme Court has also recognized the right of a state to restrict such activity in order to avoid the appearance of such support. This means that classified state employees must avoid the ACTUAL support or opposition of a candidate, party, or faction. Furthermore, classified state employees also must avoid the APPEARANCE of giving such support or opposition. Prohibited Political Activity Reminder
