Edit: wait I just saw the organization linked. That is some right wing nonsense.
I think this is more about creating a remote work system for the federal government than anything else. But anything supported by Sinema is probably a terrible idea.

This legislation emerges on the heels of efforts by senators like “Family-Friendly” Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) to undo remote work, which makes it easier for workers to start and grow families, guidelines established during the pandemic.
I thought the article was just mocking right wingers
Edit:
It does mock right wingers, and I read the bill it doesn’t look like it has a poison pill besides the potentially harmful twice in a pay period (which is two weeks)
Remote work has been a target of self styled “pro-family” conservatives. For instance, Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) voiced worries about federal employees moving to less expensive areas but retaining high pay (The absolute horror!). These arguments contribute to a larger political discourse on the pros and cons of family-friendly remote work.

Doesn't look like it.
Broader context is Biden is trying to force RTO on all federal workers
Which make this bill a shock
And this bill mandates RTO.
