Eight House members from the Washington, D.C. area are asking the House Appropriations Committee to freeze federal employee pay for only one year.
President Obama sent a legislative proposal to the Hill last week asking for a two-year pay freeze.

Tom Davis, former Congressman from Virginia, told Federal News Radio's Jason Miller that the letter comes at a good time, but it may not stop the bloodletting.
