Summary
The VA Police Recruitment and Retention Act bars the Department of Veterans Affairs, OPM, or any agency from lowering the grade or pay of law‑enforcement positions at the VA. It also nullifies any such downgrades that occurred after Oct. 1, 2025, returning those positions and pay to their prior status. The goal is to protect VA police staffing and retain experienced officers.
