SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE; FINDINGS.

    (a) Short Title.--This Act may be cited as the ``LEO Fair 
Retirement Act of 2014''.
    (b) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) Federal law enforcement officers are never ``off-
        duty''. They are counted on to respond at any time of the day 
        or night, regardless of their official duty status, to protect 
        the public safety. Outside of our Nation's armed forces, theirs 
        is the only occupation comprised of individuals who are 
        routinely called upon to put their lives on the line to keep 
        America safe.
            (2) Though the Federal Government may house the largest 
        variety of occupations of any U.S. employer across its panoply 
        of agencies and entities, Federal law enforcement is absolutely 
        unique among them, and the Federal law enforcement officer has 
        no counterpart in the private sector. It is one of the most 
        stressful, most dangerous, and most rewarding careers for those 
        who meet the rigorous requirements of the job.
            (3) It was in recognition of the unique nature of the 
        occupation, and the demanding schedules required of those who 
        fill its ranks, that Congress established distinct pay and 
        benefit systems for Federal law enforcement positions. This 
        includes basic pay, retirement, and even overtime compensation, 
        in the form of either Law Enforcement Availability Pay 
        (``LEAP'') or Administratively Uncontrollable Overtime 
        (``AUO'').
            (4) Under current law, LEAP by its very nature is provided 
        to law enforcement officers to ensure that they are 
        ``available'', that they will be ``generally and reasonably 
        accessible by the agency'' in excess of the 40-hour workweek to 
        perform unscheduled duty based on the agency's needs.
            (5) Similarly, AUO was established to provide overtime to 
        certain law enforcement officers in positions where ``the hours 
        of duty cannot be controlled administratively'' and that 
        require ``substantial amounts of irregular, unscheduled 
        overtime duty''.
            (6) Because both LEAP and AUO compensation are subject to 
        the pay caps, they are payable to a Federal law enforcement 
        officer only to the extent that the payments do not cause the 
        aggregate of the employee's basic pay and premium pay to exceed 
        the established caps.
            (7) In light of the continuing homeland and national 
        security threats facing our Nation, and after a three-year 
        Federal pay freeze, it is in the interest of the Federal 
        Government to ensure that it can continue to recruit and retain 
        the highest caliber personnel by guaranteeing Federal law 
        enforcement officers full credit in retirement for overtime 
        hours worked but never paid.
