Yes, everything increases, gas, food, clothes, electricity, Insurance, hospital bills but salaries are staying the same. How can people not struggle these days???

The cost of living is higher here in Orlando, than in Tampa, even though our locality pay is less than Tampa's.

Inflation is very paramount at this time; being able to afford all living expenses would be extremely beneficial

Yes please increase as this needs updated and also the WG employees should be getting locality pay as well. If VA WG employees in Viera get locality pay so should the ones at Nona.

They couldn't possibly pay me my total worth but an increase in locality pay is a start.

For a VA the size of the Orlando VA Healthcare System, in a city as large as Orlando, competitive pay is paramount in not only hiring the best, but in retaining them. This locality surprised me when I moved from Cleveland (significantly higher) to Florida last year and I think this is past due.

It's time that Orlando be recognized for the overpriced locality that it is. Lisa Plater

As an underpaid experienced Registered Nurse with over ten years spent in healthcare, I whole heartedly agree with the recommendation of this petition.
