    How would excluding locality pay from retirement calculations affect federal employees recruited to high-cost areas like San Francisco or Washington D.C.?

  2. 02

    What fiscal savings does the government expect from reducing retirement payouts, and how would those savings compare to potential recruitment challenges?

  3. 03
