S 4530 United States Senate · 119th Congress

A bill to amend chapters 83 and 84 of title 5, United States Code, to authorize an increase of the retirement age for members of the Capitol Police.

Summary

This act authorizes the Capitol Police Board to increase the mandatory retirement age for a member of the Capitol Police to up to age 62 when the board determines such waiver is in the public interest. Under current law, members of the Capitol Police are generally subject to mandatory retirement at (1) age 57; or (2) upon completing 20 years of service if the member is older than 57. Previously, a waiver from the board would authorize a member to continue working until age 60. The act authorizes the board to issue a waiver specifying a retirement age between 57 and 62.

MINOR

The substantive policy content of S 4530 is unchanged between the two versions. The diff reflects the transition from a Senate-engrossed version to a fully enrolled bill, meaning it passed both chambers in identical form. The added lines are standard legislative formatting (Congress header, enactment clause, signatures of the Speaker and Vice President) required for an enrolled bill.

TECHNICAL

The bill was reformatted from a Senate engrossed version into a full enrolled bill with standard legislative boilerplate including the 119th Congress header, 'Be it enacted' clause, and signature lines for the Speaker of the House and Vice President. No policy language was changed.
