I gave it a star, but I this sounds like a joke, even if enforced, if you look at the penalties:
​"The penalty structure for violations of the Hatch Act by federal employees includes removal from federal service, reduction in grade, debarment from federal employment for a period not to exceed 5 years, suspension, reprimand, or a civil penalty not to exceed $1,000.
5 U.S.C. § 7326(2). Note that this statutory maximum penalty amount is subject to annual adjustment by the Merit Systems Protection Board pursuant to the Federal Civil Penalities Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015. The current maximum penalty can be found at 5 C.F.R. §​ 1201.126(a).
Ohhhh, now we know why the Civil "Servants" aren't concerned about the law! This is a bad joke. The worst that can happen is you lose your job and pay $1000. The WORST...!
There isn't even a felony possibility!
