Comments on Proposed NSPS Regulations – RIN 3206-AK76/0790/AH82

 

To: Whom it may concern,

 

As a Federal employee of the Department of Defense, I am extremely concerned that our congress has empowered the Secretary of Defense in a manner which allows him to be a dictator under the disguise of national security. The imposition of NSPS has created a system, by which, takes the rights of employees and their unions to effectively represent labor issues. This need for “flexibility” has been in effect for many years without adversely impacting the Department of Defense. Unions and federal employees have never impeded DoD in any efforts concerning national security ie: Desert Storm, yet this concern has congress to allow the Security of Defense to restructure pay and performance management. By what means does this impact national security? Federal employees pay structure has been in place for many years, yet congress wants to fix a wheel that has never been broken. Its time that the people’s congress rectify their actions by rescinding such authority and return OUR pay back to its current form.

 

Sincerely
