Latest Action · September 22, 2023
Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability.
This bill extends a special overtime pay exception for U.S. Secret Service employees through 2028, five years beyond its current expiration date of 2023. The legislation allows the Secret Service to pay protective services staff overtime compensation outside the normal federal pay restrictions, but clarifies that this authority does not cover routine administrative or technical work. The bill requires the Secret Service Director to submit annual projections and quarterly updates to Congress detailing overtime costs and staffing impacts, as well as annual reports comparing actual results to the projections to ensure the program remains necessary and effective. The reporting requirements run through 2029, giving Congress oversight of how the agency uses this overtime authority and its effects on recruitment and retention of protective services personnel.
