What this bill would do

The U.S. Park Police Modernization Act aims to change the pay structure for officers and members of the United States Park Police. This bill seeks to reduce the number of pay grade steps and shorten the time required between those steps. It amends the District of Columbia Police and Firemen's Salary Act of 1958 to implement a new schedule of rates for various salary classes. The legislation also includes adjustments to service steps and specific instructions on how prior compensation adjustments are handled. The changes are set to take effect on the first pay period beginning after the Act is enacted.
