Republicans offer a big slap in the face to future and present federal retirees, FERS to take biggest hit

Title: Trump’s budget calls for hits on federal employee retirement programs

Article Snip: "...Increase Federal Employee Retirement System (FERS) contributions from workers by 1 percentage point each year until they equal the government’s contribution. This would take five to six years and would result in increased out-of-pocket payments of about 6 percent over that period...Eliminate supplement payments for FERS employees who retire beginning in 2018. The supplement approximates the value of Social Security benefits for those who retire before age 62..."
