Pay Study Letter to OPM
Dear Director Ahuja:
I am reaching out on behalf of the National Association of Assistant U.S. Attorneys (NAAUSA)–representing the interests of the more than 6,000 federal prosecutors and civil attorneys across the nation’s 94 U.S. Attorney Offices–to request a meeting to discuss pay inequities across the Department of Justice (DOJ) and request the Office of Personnel Management aid DOJ in undertaking a comparative pay study, which has been consistently delayed. As you know from your time as a DOJ attorney, the work of these public servants is essential to maintaining rule of law and safety in our communities. We write to ensure the Department is doing everything in its power to recruit and retain the talent necessary to meet this vital mission.
