FERS Retirement Credit for unused sick leave stalls:

[James48843]

The Senate just voted 64-38 for Cloture, meaning that the bill now is ready for a final vote.

Sick leave for FERS is included in section 1901 of the conference report.

We'll now shortly whether it passes. The next vote on the Defense Authorization Bill will be the final vote for this legislation, before it goes to the President's desk.

Cross fingers. The final vote should happen later today.

Final vote on the FY2010 Defense Authorization Bill- it passed in the Senate--, 68-29.

Now it's on to the President's desk for signature. http://www.tsptalk.com/mb/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=236356

I'm glad it passed.

As noted above, the next step is to get full credit for sick leave.
