Bill > HR1260

This bill modifies the pay structure for United States Park Police officers by condensing and shortening the time between pay grade steps, effectively allowing officers to advance more quickly through their salary ranks. Specifically, the bill revises the existing salary schedule in the District of Columbia Police and Firemen's Salary Act, reducing the number of steps from 13 to a smaller number and decreasing the time between steps from 52 or 104 weeks to a shorter period. The changes apply to various ranks from Private to Chief, with salary classes ranging from 1 to 11. The bill maintains existing pay limitations for higher-ranking positions, such as capping certain ranks at 95% of the Executive Schedule Level V pay rate. The new pay scale provides incremental salary increases across different service levels and specialties (such as Technician, Pilot, Detective, and Sergeant), and will take effect on the first pay period following the act's enactment. Any prior pay adjustments made before January 12, 2025, will be disregarded in implementing these changes, with the goal of modernizing and potentially improving compensation and career progression for U.S. Park Police officers.
