Most civilian federal employees would not receive a pay raise next year in an alternative compensation plan released by President Donald Trump this week.
“Such a large raise for Federal employees while most Americans still struggle with the consequences of the Biden Administration’s giant inflation spree is unacceptable and would be unfair,” Trump wrote in a letter to Congress this week, first reported by Federal News Network.
“I have therefore decided to set at zero the pay adjustment to be made for the 2027 pay year.”
