You are only partially correct.

Obama proposed a 0.5% increase after a two year pay freeze, but it was never approved and all Federal pay continues to be frozen the third consecutive year. The House voted in January to continue the pay freeze. Obama's proposal was to increase pay after March 27th, but the Continuing Resolution stands in the way and any raise has yet to be finalized or dealt with.

Liar!!!!! That never happened. It made idiots like yourself believe it though. It was mentioned by Obama but never implemented. Good job making yourself the cool guy bashing Americans.
