Amends Executive Order 12171 to update the list of Department of Defense agencies and subdivisions excluded from the Federal Labor-Management Relations Program because their primary function involves intelligence, counterintelligence, investigative, or national security work, and because applying federal labor-management rules to them is found incompatible with national security needs. It revises and replaces the lists of exempted units within the Army, Navy, Air Force, Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Combatant Commands, and adds several Defense agencies and offices, including the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the National Reconnaissance Office, and specific units within the Defense Information Systems Agency, Defense Logistics Agency, and other Defense components. The order states it does not alter existing legal authority of departments or agencies, does not affect the Office of Management and Budget's budgetary functions, must be implemented consistent with applicable law and available appropriations, and does not create any enforceable rights against the United States.
