Workers who perform largely the same tasks at OHS that are performed at other agencies should not be paid less for doing the same work. This is a basic issue of faimness. and Im glad the bill addresses this issue. Im also pleased that the bill requires pay parity for Customs and Border Protection employees. Our CBP officers often have some of the most dangerous and thankless jobs in the Federal Government. The fact that in the past they have not been compensated at the same rate as other Federal law enforcement officers is an injustice that this bill remedies.
