Your Federal Life

Your Federal Life -- Aug. 6, 2025


Listen Later

The final version of the One Big Beautiful Bill left most federal benefits untouched. But the reconciliation bill did introduce several new tax provisions that could impact how Americans save, contribute and plan for retirement. Thiago Glieger, a wealth advisor with RMG Advisors, joins us to help make sense of it all.

Later in the show, we hear advice about what to do when you get called in to testify as a congressional witness. It can be terrifying, but it is also a vital information link that supports lawmaking, oversight and public accountability. Bill LaForge, author of the updated book, "Testifying before Congress," gives us some insider tips.

Plus, new numbers show that 154,000 federal employees opted into the deferred resignation program this year. But raw numbers, of course, never tell the whole story. The Partnership for Public Service recently came out with an impact report, highlighting how the Trump administration’s changes have affected agencies. We get details from Max Stier, the Partnership's president and CEO.
