H.R. 6439: Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act
The Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act is a bill that aims to change the way overtime pay is provided to certain U.S. Border Patrol agents. Specifically, it proposes to expand eligibility for special overtime pay to Border Patrol agents who are in pay grades GS-12 through GS-15. Currently, the special overtime pay is limited to agents at GS-12, meaning that higher-level agents do not receive the same overtime benefits.
Key Provisions of the Bill
- Eligibility Expansion: The bill would allow Border Patrol agents classified from GS-12 up to GS-15 to qualify for higher rates of regularly scheduled overtime pay.
- Amendment to Current Law: The current legal text regarding overtime pay eligibility would be amended to reflect this broader range of eligible pay grades.
Overall, this bill is intended to improve retention among supervisory Border Patrol agents by offering them better compensation for their work hours beyond their regular duties, which could help address staffing challenges within the Border Patrol.
