AI Summary
This bill, the LEO Fair Retirement Act of 2022, aims to amend federal law to allow law enforcement officers (LEOs) to receive full credit in their retirement annuity calculations for any overtime hours worked that exceeded the premium pay cap. Currently, LEOs can work significant overtime hours without being fully compensated due to this pay cap. The bill proposes allowing LEOs to make a one-time lump-sum payment to cover the difference in retirement contributions, in exchange for having those overtime hours counted toward their final average pay for annuity purposes. The bill also expands eligibility for availability pay to certain other federal law enforcement positions. Additionally, the bill provides a tax credit for the lump-sum payments made by LEOs to receive this overtime credit in their retirement calculations.
