Federal workers face potential large pay raise amid political wrangling
The article reports on a proposed up to about 26 percent raise for roughly 3,000 top federal employees including Cabinet members and officials. It details White House discussions with Reagan aides, congressional hesitance, the 30 day window for action, and the ongoing influence of a 1983 Supreme Court ruling on legislative veto and automatic raises if Congress does not act. The piece notes current salaries and the likelihood of hearings, while highlighting the politics surrounding merit raises versus cost of living adjustments.

NRC accuses staff of intimidation at Comanche Peak
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission says agency officials pushed to finish the Comanche Peak reactor in Texas and downgraded inspectors reports. It cites intimidation of federal safety inspectors, deletions of violation reports, and statements that the unfinished plant was being safely constructed. The commission stresses the inquiry does not claim the reactor is unsafe.

Reagan lights yuletide tree with 8 year old helper
President Reagan and Byron White joined an 8 year old boy to illuminate the White House Christmas tree, a ceremony recalling the first in 1923. About 6,500 spectators watched from the chilly grounds as the switch was pressed and cheers rang out. The White House announced Friday, Dec 26 would be a federal holiday. Edward J. Rollins, ex Reagan aide, will chair Kemp’s exploratory committee, with spokesman John Buckley confirming the plan. Fusion Energy Foundation Inc. has had its tax exempt status restored by the IRS after an earlier termination in 1985, an error now acknowledged by IRS officials.
