This bill, called the Honoring Civil Servants Killed in the Line of Duty Act, aims to increase and expand payments from the government to the families of federal employees who are killed while doing their jobs. It also ties into the part of federal law that deals with payments when a worker is missing or when a worker dies or is disabled, suggesting updates in those areas as well.
