Section 1018(e)(1)(B) of the Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 2003 ( 2 U.S.C. 1907(e)(1)(B) ) is amended to read as follows: The Chief may terminate an officer, member, or employee only after the Chief has provided notice of the termination to the officer, member, or employee and to the Capitol Police Board (in such manner as the Board may from time to time require) and the Board has approved the termination, except that— the Board may not approve the termination prior to the expiration of the 10-day period which begins on the date the Board receives the notice; during such 10-day period, the officer, member, or employee may file a written appeal of the termination with the Board; and if the Board has not disapproved the termination prior to the expiration of the 30-day period which begins on the date the Board receives the notice, the Board shall be deemed to have approved the termination.
The approval of the termination of an officer, member, or employee by the Capitol Police Board under this subparagraph is final and may not be reviewed or appealed, or subject to grievance procedures, in any administrative or judicial forum, except that nothing in this clause may be construed to affect the procedures applicable under title IV of the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995 ( 2 U.S.C. 1401 et seq.) to any claim alleging a violation of part A of title II of such Act ( 2 U.S.C. 1311 et seq.). .
The amendment made by subsection
(a)shall apply with respect to terminations approved by the Capitol Police Board on or after the date of the enactment of this Act.
