Canceled furlough day welcome, but what about Aug. 30?
NTEU President Colleen M. Kelley applauded IRS' decision to cancel its July 22 furlough day, but she says that's not enough. July 17, 2013
July 17, 2013 — This week on “Your Turn” Colleen M. Kelley, president of the National Treasury Employees Union, discusses the latest developments in how the Internal Revenue Service has handled furloughs due to sequestration.
