Retired Firefighter and Police Officer Redeployment Extension Temporary Amendment Act of 2024

This temporary bill allows retired police officers and firefighters in Washington, D.C., to be rehired as 911 call takers or dispatchers without risking their retirement benefits. The decision to hire these individuals as either full-time or part-time staff rests with the Director of the Office of Unified Communications. While the work performed under this program does not count toward future pension credits, it ensures that these veterans can return to service without financial penalty. The legislation is set to expire 225 days after it takes effect.
