A bill to amend chapters 83 and 84 of title 5, United States Code, to authorize an increase of the retirement age for members of the Capitol Police.
Sponsored By: Senator McConnell, Mitch [R-KY]
Passed Senate
Summary
Retirement-age trigger for Capitol Police would become adjustable. This bill would change two federal retirement rules so that Capitol Police members no longer retire automatically at age 60. Instead, the Boards that run the Civil Service Retirement System and the Federal Employees' Retirement System would set the eligible age for Capitol Police somewhere between 57 and 62. The change applies only to the Capitol Police retirement provisions in those two systems and does not alter other federal retirement rules.

New retirement age rules for Capitol Police
If enacted, members of the U.S. Capitol Police would have a new retirement age rule. A Board would set the age between 57 and 62. Today, the law sets the age at 60; this would replace that fixed age. This would apply under both the Civil Service and Federal Employees retirement systems. It would not change other benefits, pay, or rules.
