SLIDE 5

On the Whole CFC Trends Continue Downward……

  • Campaign donations nationally about one‐third the amount in 2010….
  • Major reductions in donations, donor and charity participation with new CFC construct in

2017.

  • National campaign costs remain stable at about $26M, but a larger share of a smaller

donor pot – increasing costs to charities who are leaving the campaign.

  • CFC is a “program at risk”…

Some Brighter Spots……

  • Retiree giving continues to increase, OPM working to better outreach to retired

population.

  • Reduction in printing costs and completion of amortization of new on‐line donor

portal costs should decrease future campaign costs moving forward.

  • Strong commitment by donors to local volunteer hours, about 5% of Hawaii giving

totals.

  • Improvements to portal to help donors more easily locate their workplaces.
  • Post Office employees prototyping use of an EIN vice SSN for pledges in CY‐2019.
  • OPM working to develop a CFC smart phone application.

InfraGard History

 InfraGard began in the Cleveland, Ohio, Field Office in 1996, and has since expanded to become a national‐level program, with InfraGard coordinators in every FBI field office.  Originally, it was a local effort to gain support from the information technology industry and academia for the FBI's investigative efforts in the cyber arena, but it has since expanded to a much wider range of activities surrounding the DHS's 16 critical infrastructures.

Current Initiatives:

Petition to Congress to direct OPM to settle alleged pay discrimination against federal employees in the non‐foreign pay areas. There is congressional interest in all of the non‐foreign areas, but none has to date proposed legislation to address (the HPFEB cannot endorse specific legislation). The goal is to have Congress provide a framework to direct OPM to obtain a settlement for back pay and to identify a way (stable COLA?) to eliminate the pay gap in the future, also to address the gaps in

  • annuities. Those interested can find documents, calculators and case studies here:

https://honolulu‐pacific.feb.gov/what‐we‐do/work‐force‐development/federal‐compensation‐in‐the‐non‐foreign‐areas/ password is: paylag

The Non-Foreign AREA Act of 2009 has not had the effect that Congress

  • intended. The Act changed the composition of federal salaries in non-foreign areas

beginning January 1, 2010, but it failed to protect take home pay. The salary lag has continued, and the equal pay gap has widened. Moreover, although the name of the 2009 Act is derived from the phrase “Retirement Equity Assurance,” discrimination in retirement benefits is continuing, most extremely against the oldest (pre-2010) retirees. The Government cannot continue making disproportionate increases in the regular take-home pay of employees in the contiguous United States and denying equal pay to federal employees in non-foreign areas. Also, agencies must include the non-foreign salary differential authorized by 5 U.S.C. § 5941(a)(1) in the retirement base, as Congress always intended. All forms of discrimination against federal employees and federal retirees in non-foreign areas must come to an end.

slide-81

Language Introduced into the House Appropriations Committee Report Accompanying HR 3351, Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Bill, FY‐2020, by Congressman Ed Case (01‐HI):

“Locality Pay.—The Committee is interested in a comparison of salary and retirement benefits of Federal employees and retirees living in the state of Alaska and Hawaii and the territories of Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa, with those in the contiguous 48 states and the District

  • f Columbia. Within 120 days of enactment of this

Act, OPM is directed to issue a report analyzing the calculation of locality pay (5 U.S.C 5304) in salary and benefit adjustments for employees living in non-foreign areas (5 CFR 591.205). The report must also assess how the calculations compare with those of Federal employees living in the rest of the United States to determine if there are any inequities in such calculations. In addition, the report should include information, where possible, on the differential in pay received by retirees in these locations who did not receive consideration

  • f full locality pay amounts in their high-3 earnings on which annuities are calculated and of survivor

annuitants of such Federal employees. The Committee further directs OPM to include policy recommendations for Congress to consider in the report.
