Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act
To expand eligibility for special overtime pay to U.S. Border Patrol agents classified above grade GS-12.
The Border Patrol Supervisors Retention Act, introduced on December 4, 2025, aims to extend eligibility for special overtime pay to U.S. Border Patrol agents who hold positions above grade GS-12. This change could help retain and motivate senior agents by offering them financial incentives for extra work. The bill has been referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform for further review.
This bill would primarily affect U.S. Border Patrol agents classified above grade GS-12, allowing them to earn additional compensation for overtime work. This could potentially improve retention rates and job satisfaction among higher-ranking agents, ultimately benefiting border security operations.
As of December 4, 2025, the bill is in its initial stages. It has been introduced and referred to the relevant committee for consideration. Further actions will depend on the committee's review and recommendations, which may lead to discussions, amendments, or votes in the House.
