A bill to exclude locality adjustments from average pay for purposes of computing the amount of retirement annuities of new employees.

This bill would change how retirement and disability payments are calculated for new federal employees in a certain retirement system. Currently, some federal workers get extra pay called "locality-based comparability payments" if they work in areas where federal workers are paid more than 5% less than non-federal workers in the same area. Under this bill, that extra pay would no longer be counted when figuring out how much new employees receive in retirement or disability benefits.
