This morning, the Office of Management and Budget released the second and final phase of the President’s FY 2020 budget proposal. The second phase included agency appendices with their individual budget proposal. The Office of Personnel Management (“OPM”) budget proposal is found beginning on page 1085 of the General Service Administration (“GSA”) appendix. We learn that OPM plans to take another shot at getting Congress to approve incorporating quality measure scores into the government contribution calculation (p. 1094).
