Every non military Federal Employee in the USA should be required By LAW to Immediately retrofit Every Appliance they have to meet these requirements or be FIRED and Lose all Pension and Retirement benefits.
I am curious as to why you want to exempt the military.
Once people get an exemption, they tend not to care what happens to others.
I believe there are conservatives in the federal work force, just as the military has a lot of WOKE people in the ranks.
