3/25/2015 Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection. House Reports: 114-47 [The
House and Senate budget committees are finalizing a budget agreement that is
expected to be voted on early next week. This budget seeks to cut as much as
$318 billion in pay and benefits from federal employees and retirees. The House Fiscal Year 2016 budget resolution,
H.Con.Res. 27, attacks federal and postal employees and retirees by raising the
cost of health insurance for all FEHBP participants, eliminating federal jobs,
increasing retirement contributions for current employees and, perhaps most
shocking, changing the rate of return on the Thrift Savings Plan G-Fund. The Senate budget resolution, S.Con.Res. 11,
is less egregious, but still asks for $170 billion in savings from the federal
community. As you know, the federal workforce has already contributed $120
billion towards deficient reduction over the past five years. Source: NARFE ]

H.J.RES.61 : Hire More Heroes Act
of 2015. Latest Major Action: 9/24/2015 Senate floor actions. Status: Motion
by Senator McConnell to commit to Senate Committee on Appropriations with
instructions to report back forthwith with the following amendment (SA 2685)
made in Senate. Note: The measure is the
vehicle for FY2016 Continuing Appropriations. It was the vehicle in the Senate
for congressional disapproval of the Iran nuclear agreement. [Senate CR to Keep Government Open Fails. The Senate failed to pass SJR 61, a
Continuing Resolution (CR) that would have kept the government operating at FY
2015 spending levels until December 11, 2015. The measure included a provision
to defund Planned Parenthood and failed to get the required 60 votes (47-52) on
a motion to stop debate (cloture motion). House Leadership has indicated they
will move next week to approve a “clean” CR to avoid a government shutdown—but
only after they also vote on a CR that includes a prohibition of federal
funding for Planned Parenthood. The House and Senate have to pass a CR before
October 1, 2015—the start of the new fiscal year—to avoid a (partial)
government shutdown. (Source: FRA NewsBytes September 25 2015)]
