AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes federal pay law for U.S. Border Patrol agents. Under current law, a special higher rate of regularly scheduled overtime pay applies to Border Patrol agents in positions at grade GS-12. The bill would extend that overtime pay provision to agents in positions from grade GS-12 through GS-15, which covers higher-graded agents such as supervisors. It also updates the heading of that section of law to match the new grade range.
