The bill would establish minimum eligibility, medical, fitness, background, education, training, and in-service standards for Federal law enforcement officers, bar deployment before required training, restrict certain prior conduct, require use-of-force reporting and a national accountability database, and require agency accreditation. It would cap immigration enforcement officers at the enactment-date baseline, prohibit increases in their basic pay, and prohibit DHS from offering hiring bonuses to applicants for Federal law-enforcement positions or other agency employment and to newly hired or appointed Federal law-enforcement officers or other agency employees. It would provide agency discipline and removal, oversight, and limited civil actions.
