Obama to propose 1 percent pay raise for federal workforce, military
Source: Washington Post
President Obama will propose a 1 percent pay raise for federal employees and members of the military in the fiscal 2015 budget that the White House is expected to announce next week. The increases are consistent with the pay hikes federal workers and troops received this year.
