Highlights

In response to a congressional request, GAO developed options to consider in the design of a new civil service retirement program that would provide for: (1) new District of Columbia employees who participate in the federal civil service system, but are not required by the Social Security Amendments of 1983 to participate in the social security system; and (2) new law enforcement personnel who are covered by social security but who must retire before the age when social security benefits would be available to them.
