What it does

The Law Enforcement Officers Equity Act amends federal retirement laws to expand the definition of "law enforcement officer" to include certain federal employees—such as IRS tax collectors, Postal Inspection Service agents, VA police officers, and CBP seized property specialists—so they qualify for enhanced retirement benefits. The bill applies to individuals appointed on or after enactment and allows incumbent officers to elect to have prior service counted toward law enforcement retirement by making employee and agency contributions, with interest, over a 10-year period. It also temporarily exempts affected officers from mandatory separation requirements for three years after enactment.
