HR 5121 United States House · 118th Congress

Healthy Servicemembers Act

HR 5121, the Healthy Servicemembers Act, requires the Secretary of Defense to screen military service members and their families for health conditions linked to unsafe housing, creating a registry to track these cases. It defines "unsafe housing" as dwellings failing federal housing quality standards or containing dangerous mold levels, and mandates the registry to document health connections to such housing. The bill also directs the creation of a public campaign to inform eligible individuals about the registry and its benefits. This directly affects active-duty service members, veterans, and their families who resided in qualifying unsafe housing units.
