Federal Diary Aims to Restore Private Wages and Health Plan Shifts
The White House faces possible retroactive private wage gains while resisting restoring seven million dollars of federal longevity payments frozen from August to November. About 162,000 federal workers, 25 percent of white collar staff, were due for longevity raises averaging around $900 annually. Officials doubt retroactive payment will occur, aligning with private industry retroactivity bills but treating longevity boosts as ongoing legal admin procedures. Separate talks consider Blue Cross Blue Shield rate hikes for government health coverage, with a proposed 39 percent premium rise and agency share, while some lawmakers challenge the increases. The CSC warns of a larger health program move toward a self-insured federal system, prompting debates on empire-building versus efficiency.
