[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a fed and yes I’m feeling depressed mainly because there are just too many unknowns. I’m more worried about what they can do administratively that doesn’t require an act of Congress. Change Feds to termed appointments. Change around our TSP, our benefits. Freeze our pay. Fire at will via his EO. There’s a ton they can do that does not require Congress to intervene. Funding is one thing and that is up to Congress, but fed workforce policy, pay, benefits is at the whim of POTUS and OPM. Just sad. [/quote] Chin up. I’m not an expert by any means, but I don’t think that what you’ve written about the overwhelming power of POTUS and OPM vis-a-vis feds is all true. I believe Congress does have to approve those changes. And don’t forget that the Republican majority in the House is very slim, and that Rs in the House are fractious. They will need Dem votes to get anything passed, thus giving Dems bargaining chips. [/quote]
