Federal Employee Locality Accountability in Retirement Act
This bill amends federal retirement law to exclude locality-based pay adjustments from retirement calculations for newly hired federal employees who were not previously covered by retirement rules. Specifically, it targets "revised average pay employees" defined as those who become covered under retirement rules after the law's enactment but had no prior creditable service. The key provision removes locality pay (additional compensation based on geographic location) from the calculation of their retirement annuities. This change affects only new hires meeting the specific criteria, not current retirees or existing employees.
