HR 8956 United States House · 119th Congress

Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act

The Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act modifies federal overtime pay rules to include supervisors within the U.S. Border Patrol. Specifically, it expands eligibility for higher rates of regularly scheduled overtime pay to agents classified at grades GS-12 through GS-15, rather than limiting it to only those at the GS-12 level. This change directly affects supervisory staff who currently manage border operations and ensures they receive the same overtime compensation as their lower-grade counterparts. By updating the relevant section of the U.S. Code, the bill aims to standardize pay structures for these specific roles without altering other aspects of their employment or duties.
