Summary
Brings sharper transparency and a clear pay framework to VA senior executives. This bill would require new disclosures about performance awards and create rules for how Senior Executive Service pay is set at the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Show full summary
- Senior VA leaders would face new public reporting. Annual performance-award reports must add two items: which appropriations accounts paid each award and each recipient's annual basic rate of pay.
- Pay for VA senior executive jobs would be tied to the federal Senior Executive Service pay structure in Title 5. The Secretary would set the annual basic pay for each VA senior executive position within those SES pay ranges and aggregate limits.
- Rules for moves and hires would be clearer. A career appointee transferring into a VA senior post would receive the pay for that position consistent with their performance and pay level under Title 5. An employee shifting between VA senior posts would receive the new position’s established pay on the first pay period after starting, with limited Secretary adjustments allowed under Title 5.

VA senior executive pay rules
This bill would require the VA Secretary to set the annual basic pay for each VA senior executive job using the federal Senior Executive Service pay ranges and limits in Title 5. Career appointees who transfer from another agency would receive a rate consistent with their performance and pay level under SES rules. If a VA senior executive moved to a different VA executive job, they would receive the new job's pay starting the first day of the next pay period, and the Secretary could only change pay as allowed by existing SES rules. The bill would also require VA's annual report on performance awards and bonuses to list the appropriation accounts used to pay each award and the annual basic rate of pay for each person who received an award.
