Legal Question in Disability Law in Georgia

I work for the federal government and went out on maternity leave under FMLA. Since I was on leave without pay, they have held up my raise/promotional increase stating that I have to serve the stipulated time of 1 year in my current pay grade. Essentially, until I put that time back in. I thought FMLA protected against this type of repercussion???
