Written by Cecil Cahoon In Roman mythology, Janus was the two-faced god of Rome's gates and doorways, watching over the interior of the city and guarding against outside invasion at the same time. His divine gift was to see backward to the past and forward to the future.

Great AFSE grievance win! From AFSE Grievance Committee Chair, Lynn Malarz: Colleagues: On behalf of the AFSE Grievance Committee, I want to express my enthusiasm over an important AFSE Grievance win. Background: NEA management was tardy in processing the TCA (overnight travel allowance) voucher submitted by an AFSE member.

As you know, AFSE leaders have been dealing with the issue of NEA changing the reimbursement for AFSE staff traveling on assignment and the submission of vouchers for said travel. AFSE leaders have been in consultation with and receiving guidance from its lawyers and from NSO from the beginning.

The AFSE Bargaining Team has begun the difficult task of advocating for AFSE members.  Thank you Team for your time and wilingness to take on this charge.
