Newhouse & Perez Introduce Bill To Address BPA Hiring Issues

Washington Representatives Dan Newhouse and Marie Glusenkamp Perez on Tuesday introduced a bill to address hiring and retention issues at the Bonneville Power Administration.  The Reliability to Ratepayers Act directs the BPA to develop a comprehensive compensation plan for all employees by allowing the administrator to review and update compensation plans without regard to civil service laws.  Newhouse says the bill provides BPA with the flexibility to offer competitive compensation, address hiring and retention challenges, and tackle the backlog of critical projects that impact the Pacific Northwest. Glusenkamp Perez added to continue to recruit and retain people in essential public energy jobs, their hard work must be honored through appropriate compensation.
