Trump cancels pay raises for almost 2 million federal workers
‘In light of our nation’s fiscal situation, federal employee pay must be performance-based,’ the president wrote in a Thursday letter to congressional leaders.

President Donald Trump announced Thursday he was canceling across-the-board pay raises for civilian workers across the federal government, citing the “nation’s fiscal situation.”

“We must maintain efforts to put our nation on a fiscally sustainable course, and federal agency budgets cannot sustain such increases,” the president wrote in a letter to congressional leaders.

Under Trump’s policy, roughly 1.8 million people wouldn’t get an automatic pay boost next year, including Border Patrol and ICE agents.(Media experiences a sudden and inexplicable sense of sympathy for ICE agents and border patrol, lulz)

That stance puts vulnerable GOP lawmakers representing northern Virginia — home to tens of thousands of federal workers — in the political crosshairs. And it sets up an all-but-certain funding fight with Congress next month, as party leaders attempt to reach a sweeping agreement to keep the government open before the start of the next fiscal year on Oct. 1.

Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-Va.), an endangered GOP incumbent in the House, said she would work to reverse the pay freeze.

“We cannot balance the budget on the backs of our federal employees (because it’s way too fucking high - hahah) and I will work with my House and Senate colleagues to keep the pay increase in our appropriations measures that we vote on in September,” Comstock wrote in a sharply worded statement...

Well, that backfires. Making raised in the federal government tied to performance (competition) is going to be great for most veterans.

Not necessarily, I have Army buddies who work for the Federal government and I'm told their independence and no bullshit attitude puts them on the outside of the political circle jerk of leadership quite often.
