Federal employee groups are at odds over whether new...

What were the names of the Senators that the two Senate staffers work for and the name of your Congressman? I want to send a copy of your TSP ETAC IMPROVEMENT ACT to my two Massachusetts Senators and...

Just read the following on http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/TSP_Strategy/message/7806. Looks like TSPKey has given up and is going along with the other sheep . . .

I like your comment (to my posting) about making the fact that it's an election year work FOR us instead of AGAINST us! I've written my Congressman and two Senators twice.



At least the...

The following might explain some of the reluctance in acknowledging our letters to the Congress and Senate about this issue. It was summarized in a January 2008 newsletter I receive on Government...

The December 27th date is the date the action was posted in the Federal Register. The effective date was January 7, 2008, which was the official date the regulations where revised and posted on the...

With this number of retired Feds in TSP, NARFE (National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association) should also be involved in the fight. http://www.narfe.org/

I've been meaning to check-up on whether the January 7th change was actually made. If you go to the following link on the Electronic Code of Federal Regulations for Title 5, Part 1601, Sec. 1601.32...

Just received the following email from Congressmen John F. Tierney. He represents the 6th District of Massachusetts:

Dear :

Thank you for your continued...

It will be interesting to see if they address the points in out faxes, emails, and letters at some point and if they get enough complaints to modify their initial process on future interfund...

Very good letter Ayla and Paladin for your questions. I just sent a similar letter (email) using many of your points to Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Senator John F. Kerry, and Representative John F....

Very good find Anidoc! You can also send it by snail mail to David Rostker, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20503.

Hi Airlift,

I do not think (I would hope not) that there is any reason for not receiving a return receipt. I know that in my office, Federal Register actions are sent to a mail box set-up for...

Airlift,

It cannot hurt. The more emails on this technical point sent to the Office of Management and Budget, the better.

Thank you. I'm just "trying to stir the pot" by making arguments that the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board has to counter. If they cannot, then this action is withdrawn.

Thanks! I know my letter is in legalese, but this is the way I am use to writing when addressing General Counsel. As you said, PRA does apply. We'll see if it makes some noise . . .

The email address (either DavidlRostker@omb.eop.gov or David_Rostker@omb.eop.gov will work) is one that is listed in all proposed rule actions for constituents to submit comments on PRA issues. Do a...

I also just sent an email to DavidlRostker@omb.eop.gov with written comments regarding the burden-hour estimate and other aspects of the collection-of-information requirement contained in the Interim...

I just faxed and mailed the following. I borrowed some from folks who provided comments earlier in this thread (thank you) and added a few more of my own.

Dear Mr. Emswiler,

These comments...

I just joined. I would pay $5-10 or a yearly fee at a reduced rate. But I wouldn't pay much more.
