                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of the Congress that Federal retirement cost-of-
 living adjustments should be effective on the same date as other cost-
      of-living adjustments given to Federal retirement programs.

Whereas over the years Federal retirees have been asked to share in efforts to 
        reduce the deficit by delaying their annual cost-of-living adjustment 
        while retirees under other Federal programs who also receive cost-of-
        living adjustments were not delayed; and
Whereas it would be inequitable to continue delaying cost-of-living adjustments 
        for Federal retirees when like delays for similarly situated retirees 
        under other systems are not under consideration: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), 
That it is the sense of the Congress that cost-of-living adjustments 
for Federal retirees should be paid at the same time as other retirees 
receiving Federal cost-of-living adjustments.
