Federal Workers Pay Frozen for Two Years
President Obama announced a two year pay freeze for federal employees Monday (November 29). The freeze would run during 2011 and 2012. Obama says the pay freeze will save $2 billion for the remainder of FY 2011, $28 billion over the next five years, and more than $60 billion over the next 10 years.
Federal News Radio reports that "the freeze applies to all civilian federal employees, including those in various alternative pay plans and those working at the Department of Defense - but not military personnel.Obama previously froze salaries of top White House aides and political appointees across the government."
The University of Maryland has faculty experts who can talk about this possibility, its impact and other issues.
