The inspector general of the Interior Department warns government employees who claim to live in the District of Columbia actually reside in other states while claiming to live in the nation’s capitol to cheat Uncle Sam of extra pay.
These federal workers are receiving enhanced wages while residing in lower-cost regions.
Two federal Interior Department employees were discovered to live in Oregon, three were found to live in Colorado while another who is supposed to be working in the District of Columbia area resides in Southern California and rarely, if ever, travels to the nation’s capital.
Federal employees began egregiously milking the system during pandemic lockdowns. They never stopped, refusing to return to the office and the Biden administration has been indifferent to the deception, unwilling to address the issue or prod them.
Congressional Republicans are calling for President-elect Donald Trump to crack down on the no-shows.
