One is geared toward improving the jobs of federal workers and contractors, which was among the President's campaign commitments. It sets in motion another executive order he plans to sign within his first 100 days requiring federal contractors to pay a $15 hourly minimum wage and to provide emergency paid leave. It also directs agencies to determine which federal workers are earning less than that minimum and develop recommendations to promote bringing them up to $15 an hour.
The measures have been the subject of litigation and arbitration. Biden's action directs agencies to bargain over permissible, non-mandatory subjects in contract negotiations.Friday's order also eliminates the new Schedule F classification for certain federal civil service employees, which Trump created in October by executive order. Critics said Trump's move politicizes civil service and could lead to career officials being pushed out for political reasons.
Better not raise taxes to cover these bull shit ideas.
The End of the U. S.
See how easy that is?
Is this all he's gonna do? What's the count up to now, 30-35 in 2 days?
Wait, what do you mean Federal workforce? I thought the minimum wage increase was for all?
Since you all are such informed critics, What would all of you “naysayers” do?
Lol ya'll thought you were going to get a raise
President Biden, has to go with what he promised first and foremost help the hard working people living paycheck to paycheck because their life time savings went down the drain. Where is the $2000 + $400 unemployment many are back up and homeless.
Most popular president in history....for every thumbs up there are 6 thumbs down. Just like the election
Well, if they're getting $15/hr to flip a burger, I want $50/hr for skilled trade !!!
Perhaps people wouldn't need minimal wage jobs if they actually applied themselves. We all have choices in life, if you make a bad one then suffer the consequences. You don't have to go to college for a professional degree to make more than $15 a hour.
Spendy spendy spendy

What a working economy..👏👍
So all theses teenagers who are starting their first jobs getting 15$/hr. Burger flippers don’t need 15$/hr they need to aim higher in the realm of a living wage paying job, not burger flipping. We’re screwed!🤦🏻♀️
KILL THE FILIBUSTER AND GERRYMANDERING AND THE REPUBLICAN ILLNESS WILL BE ERADICATED. BUT ACT FAST!! THEY HAD NO MERCY, NEITHER SHOULD WE...
Why would you ingage us with the w.h.o they failed the world and take way to much of our money. If we reinter the w.h.o the America should be the mouth of the organization
It is a welcome development. American People deserve to be paid very well.
$15/hour is very light. With the cost of living being what it is, $25/hour would be a better number for starters. That’s just $200/day, $1,000/week, $4,000/month, $48,000/year before taxes, etc. are deducted. Then you have billionaires who pay little or no tax.
God bless you Sir and Vice President Harris! You lead by example! Congress/Senate need to get behind you and oust prosecute seditious persons still sitting in Office spouting their toxic bile!
15$ 🙄. Minimum wage should be 20+$ to make it a livable wage and should be national including statewide.
Sign the damn stimulus bill!
