Obviously We're In The Wrong Business

President Barack Obama will propose a 1 percent pay increase for both civilian agency and Defense Department employees in 2015. He sends his budget request to Congress next week. It would be the second year in a row federal employees receive a raise. A White House official tells Federal News Radio, the uniformed DoD leadership pushed for the 1 percent for service members. Raises in 2014 follow three years of pay freezes for civilian federal employees.
