Summary
The bill would change Title 10 of the U.S. Code to give the Department of Defense more flexibility when reclaiming separation, severance, or readjustment pay from service members who also receive veterans’ disability compensation. It targets armed‑force members who are receiving those disability benefits and seeks to align pay recoupment with the compensation they receive. The measure aims to address potential inconsistencies in how such pay is currently reclaimed.
