Summary:

Discusses legislative background leading to proposals to change the Foreign Service compensation system; outlines current Foreign Service personnel system; and explains why the Foreign Service views its personnel system as already performance-based. Examines why Foreign Service and the Administration are both requesting that Congress change the compensation system; reviews H.R. 3202 and S. 3426, both the Foreign Service Overseas Pay Equity Act of 2008, to adjust salary levels for many employees serving abroad to be more comparable to salaries staff in D.C.; and considers issues for Congress
