What this amendment would do

This amendment, submitted by Mr. Kennedy to the bill S. 1582, focuses on how the workers at the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection are paid. If we want to hold our government officials accountable, we need to know how taxpayer-funded agencies operate. This change directly affects the pay scale for those employees.

Purpose and Changes

The amendment aims to change the rules for how the rates of basic pay are set for all employees of the Bureau.
It requires the Director of the Bureau to set and adjust employee pay according to the General Schedule set forth in section 5332 of title 5, United States Code.
The new pay rule will officially take effect 90 days after the date of enactment of the Act.
