GAO Analysts Need a Voice in Congress on Pay, Benefits and Retirement Issues

Through a union GAO employees can actively seek Congressional support to maintain adequate funding and support for employee pay, benefits, and retirement, as well as the critical GAO mission.  Employees need not simply rely upon the Comptroller General to represent their concerns.  Through the union, GAO employees can provide meaningful input and testimony to relevant Congressional Committees and to Members of Congress and Senators who represent GAO committees at headquarters and in the field.
