| I am anxiously waiting… |
| Fox News is reporting 200. |
| Let's just hear the RTO one already. I need to read the language of it. |
+1 I wonder how long it will take for the press to get to review and report on the details of all these EOs. I hope we know quickly. |
NYTimes reporting, in summary fashion, that federal worker related EO will “require some agencies to return 4-5 days a week.” If the summary is correct, they seem to be backing off the strict 5 days everyone back in, perhaps to allow for some of the union CBAs, allowing their appointees to work partially remote, etc.. We will see soon enough |
| For those anxious to see the RTO RO quickly, you need not rely on the press reports. Generally the full EO text and a companion FAQ is posted on the White House website in close to real time as it is signed. |
| Your agency might push back and exploit any vagueness in language. Or not. So you likely won’t know today. |
Apologies, meant EO not RO. |

Should appear here under presidential actions. |
Thank you! |
That’s for a normal functional White House. Trump is not that. |

Proposals to cut federal employee benefits are also under discussion. Among the changes are:
Increasing employee contributions to the federal pension system, projected to save $44 billion over a decade. Eliminating supplemental pensions for retirees aged 57 to 62. Basing pensions on the final five years of service, rather than the last three, reducing payouts. Transitioning federal health insurance to a voucher model.-WHAT IS THIS? ------------------------------------- Unions and collective bargaining Efforts to weaken federal unions are central to the administration’s goals. A memo circulated by the conservative group Americans for Tax Reform outlines plans to limit collective bargaining rights, citing a 1978 law allowing exclusions for “national security concerns.” Recommendations include restricting union protections at agencies like the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Transportation Security Administration, and the Defense Department. |
| I already contribute 4.4% to my pension. I don’t see how this can increase and still be worth it vs putting that into TSP instead? |
some were grandfathered into lower. |
| Stay on RTO EO please. |
