We are already seeing attacks on federal workers rolling in at an unprecedented pace. If something isn’t done soon, working people may soon have little to no rights at work, no representation, and be open to losing their job at the whim of a politician.
Enough is enough, and we need to demand that Congress stop using federal employees as the easy target.

ARE YOU JUST A MEMBER?
April 17th, 2021 | Posted by in Did you know? | Local 1395 | Uncategorized - (0 Comments)Are you an active member, the kind that would be missed,
or are you just contented that your name is on the list?
Do you attend the meeting, and mingle with the flock,
or do you stay at home, and criticize and knock?
Do you take an active part to help the work along,
or are you satisfied to be the kind that just belongs?
Do you ever work on committees,
to see there is no trick,
or leave the work to just a few and talk about the clique?
So come to meetings often, and help with hand and heart.
Don’t be just a member, but take an active part.
Think it over, members, you know right from wrong.
Are you an active member, or do you just belong?

OPM’s interim final rule, which is scheduled for publication Monday, is significant in that it gives federal agencies more instruction on how they should implement new paid parental leave benefits, and it offers employees more detail on how they can take advantage of the new program.
Under the Federal Employee Paid Leave Act (FEPLA), new benefits go into effect Oct. 1. The president signed FEPLA into law late last year, following a nearly decade-long effort by members of Congress
