Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act

This legislation, titled the Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act, seeks to expand eligibility for special overtime compensation for U.S. Border Patrol agents. It specifically amends Section 5550(h) of title 5, United States Code, which governs regularly scheduled overtime pay for these personnel. The bill modifies the existing language to extend eligibility beyond just agents at grade GS-12 , now encompassing those classified in positions from grade GS-12 through GS-15 . This change broadens the scope of agents who can receive these higher rates of regularly scheduled overtime, potentially impacting supervisory and higher-ranking Border Patrol staff and aiming to improve retention.
