This bill would allow federal employees who reach the pay cap in their respective pay system to receive the base and locality pay adjustments they would otherwise be entitled to. Currently, federal employees who reach the pay cap do not receive such adjustments. Norton is a senior member of the Committee on Oversight and Reform, which has jurisdiction over federal employees. "This bill will allow many of the longest-serving federal public servants, District of Columbia residents among them, to receive the pay adjustments they are entitled to but for the pay cap," Norton said. "This bill will help the federal government hire and retain the most qualified individuals for the job.” Statement of Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton on the Introduction of the Federal Employee Pay Compression Relief Act of 2023 August 8, 2023 Today, I introduce the Federal Employee Pay Compression Relief Act of 2023, which would allow federal employees who reach the pay cap in their pay system to receive the base and locality pay adjustments they would otherwise be entitled to.
