H.R. 1230 · 114th Congress

Government Employee Pension Reform Act of 2015

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.

Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.

Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 114th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

No cosponsors.

This bill revises the definition of "average pay" for purposes of federal employee pensions under the Civil Service Retirement System and the Federal Employees Retirement System to mean the largest annual rate resulting from averaging rates of base pay over any five (currently, three) consecutive years of creditable service.
