Biden Gives Fed Workers Largest Pay Raise in Over 40 Years as Average Americans Struggle Financially
President Joe Biden has given federal workers their biggest pay raise in more than 40 years even as many Americans are finding their salaries worth increasingly less as wages fail to keep up with Bidenflation.
Biden declared this giant pay raise on his own hook for more than two million government workers by issuing his Dec. 21 “Executive order on the adjustments of certain rates of pay,” which affects the “the rates of basic pay or salaries of the statutory pay systems.”
As maintained in his fiscal 2024 budget proposal revealed last March, Biden has now implemented a 4.7 percent across-the-board hike in basic pay, according to the website Government Executive.
