What are the pension packages for politicians?

They come under the same retirement guidelines as other Federal Employees. It has been this way since 1984.
Here is a link w/ all the info on the FERS System (Federal Employees Retirement System)
Federal Employee CSRS and FERS Annuity Information and Calculator.
Short form answer if I'm not mistaken is 25 Years Service and Age 25 or 20 Years Service and age 60. They get nothing for a single term.
