If you are not fully certified, you will still get a 3% annual pay increase in 2011 and 2012.
What sucks is this is probably another stalement for improving our air traffic system....we've been stuck for the last handful of years on a continuing resolution.

Right, but he can cut the budget and reduce the amount of people entering training. If controllers think they are short staffed now, wait until he won't provide the money to bring in new one's.
I'm not too sure how this could effect us too much, but I just don't see any way the annoucement could be a good thing for the FAA.
