A bipartisan pair of senators introduced a bill on Wednesday that seeks to increase the transparency regarding federal agencies’ telework policies, with the senators claiming that government workers may be receiving undeserving amounts of local pay.

Sens. Joni Ernst (R-IA) and Gary Peters (D-MI) introduced the Telework Transparency Act, which would require agencies to make their work-from-home policies publicly available, as well as mandate audits to determine whether teleworking employees are receiving the correct locality-based pay.
