July 25, 2012 — This week on “Your Turn”, Jacque Simon, public policy director of the American Federation of Government Employees, joined host Mike Causey to talk about how sequestration would affect the federal worker/contractor community.

She also discussed the new GAO report, which found many comparisons of federal vs. private sector pay are distorted.

Also, Federal Times writer Stephen Losey looked at OPM’s plan to give benefits to children of same-sex partners, and the ongoing troubles at the General Services Administration.

Then, Sean Reilly discussed the current state of the incredible shrinking U.S. Postal Service, and talk about the Pentagon’s changing IT operations.
