Referred to the Committee on House Administration, and in addition to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill modifies the federal retirement system for U.S. Capitol Police officers by allowing certain overtime pay to count toward their retirement annuities. Under current law, overtime compensation is generally excluded from pension calculations, but this legislation allows Capitol Police officers to include Fair Labor Standards Act overtime pay in their annuity computations, up to a limit tied to the overtime pay ceiling for customs officers. However, the benefit only applies to officers who have completed at least 15 years of service before retirement, and only for overtime earned on or after the bill's enactment date. The Capitol Police must provide annual information to the Office of Personnel Management to implement and monitor these changes. The bill was introduced in May 2026 and referred to the House Committee on Administration and the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
