Reading the text of the two "tougher" bans (S 1431 and HR 203), there's no mention of an exemption for LEOs or retired LEOs (as allowed in the 94 ban).
It's pretty much guaranteed that the antis will reintroduce the "expanded" ban next legislative session regardless who controls the House and Senate. There's one big problem with that; the antis place a lot of importance in getting the support of rank and file LEO organizations. Without it, it severely weakens their argument. When hearings were taking place at the beginning of the year Sen John Warner testified...
"Not only does President Bush support this legislation--law enforcement does as well. The men and women of law enforcement know that this legislation makes communities safer. In a letter dated February 18, 2004, the Grand Lodge of the Fraternal Order of Police writes, ``It is the position of the Grand Lodge that we will support the re authorization of current law, but we will not support any expansion of the ban.'' This endorsement comes in addition to the endorsement of just about every other major law enforcement organization, and in addition to the endorsements of chiefs of police all across Virginia. "
So, either the antis will try to pass a tougher ban without the support of the FOP, or they'll have to re-write it to grant an exemption for LEOs (which would weaken their argument if the FOP pulls a flip-flop and endorses it).
