[quote=Anonymous]There will be some furloughs, but probably not as much with original sequester (the recently passed budget allows for more flexibility for some agencies). There will be no backpay. And I imagine in the next few years, some agencies will actually see pay cuts, if not direct cuts, then backdoor paycuts via increased contributions to the pension plan. The Republicans keep proposing it, and I fear the Dems are going to cave. It's a shame, because through the pay freeze, federal employees have actually contributed more than any other group to deficit reduction. I'd be more supportive of cutting departments and actually cutting unnecessary employes than doing across-the-board pay cuts. As that's the only way to make sustainable and sensible long-term plans.[/quote]
