House Republicans are advancing a series of proposals aimed at cutting federal worker benefits as part of the budget resolution, which includes undermining civil service protections and modifying the federal retirement system. The Oversight Committee has backed an overhaul of pension benefits, with plans to reduce retirement contributions while simultaneously lowering benefits for employees. Critics, including labor organizations, are urging Congress to halt these measures, emphasizing that they threaten the financial security of federal employees. The proposed changes are expected to save taxpayers an estimated $54 billion, as Republicans argue that aligning federal benefits with private sector standards is necessary. However, widespread opposition persists, highlighting the potential impact on the workforce.
