HB 5 Alabama House · 2025 Regular Session

Alabama State Law Enforcement Agency; salary adjustments provided to certain law enforcement officers

HB 5 adjusts salaries for specific Alabama State Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) officers by reclassifying 16 job titles into higher pay grades, effective September 1, 2025. It directly affects roles including ALEA Troopers (Trainee to Senior), Corporals, Sergeants, Lieutenants, Captains, Pilots, and Special Agents. The bill establishes new salary levels for these positions and increases step levels for certain roles (e.g., Lieutenants, Captains) by one step on the same effective date. This is a concrete pay adjustment for current ALEA personnel, not a new hiring policy or benefit.
