[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm hoping this forces "OPM" to close some of the loopholes and make it a real offer. Things like clarifying payments will happen, more limited waiver, etc. [/quote] Again for the people in back. IT DOESN’T MATTER. It’s illegal to promise money not appropriated. And we are under a CR until 3/14. No matter how many loopholes they close, it’s not real until Congress says it is. Separation of powers? Congress has the power of the purse? Sad how many feds would fail a civic 101 exam. [/quote] +1 [b]And Congress is probably not going to appropriate funds for people to sit around and do nothing for 8 months[/b]. Can you imagine how well that would go over back home? Case in point, my family back home has no idea this has been going on for week. I explained the deferred resignation thing to my brother (conservative but not MAGA) and he was like excuse me....WHAT? I told him about the "take a vacation" language, and I thought his head was going to explode. Fun times.[/quote] THIS congress would - because it is in the hands of a bunch of Republicans who are not going to interfere with their leader's efforts. And democrats are not going to let the federal workers get stiffed.[/quote] By the time it’s time to appropriate the money, the workers will already be gone and Rs will just say they didn’t deserve it anyway lazy feds blah blah. It’s not like Musk or Trump are the kind to expend any effort or political capital to avoid stiffing people. On the contrary - that’s how they work.[/quote]
