More deplorable actions from the GSA, the free-spending, and now infamous, federal agency that spent $823,000 on the Las Vegas conference. Now we learn that GSA management believes that nearly every employee deserves a bonus — courtesy of those of us who pay federal taxes of course.
And lawmakers have repeatedly expressed outrage that GSA gave Jeff Neely — the former Public Buildings Service commissioner for Region 9 who was responsible for a lavish $823,000 Las Vegas conference — a $9,460 bonus last year, even though officials knew the IG was preparing a devastating report on the conference. In all, five top officials, including Neely, who were later placed on leave over the Las Vegas conference received between $9,100 and $11,690 in bonuses last year.
GSA is also the most generous federal agency when it comes to awarding bonuses. The agency handed out bonuses to 87 percent of its workforce last year.
Remember this when Leftists start their predictable moaning and crying about how federal agencies are lean and mean and can’t possibly sustain any cutbacks to address the astronomical deficit and debt. Yeah, right.
