S 334 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Retain Skilled Veterans Act

S 334, the Retain Skilled Veterans Act, limits the appointment of retired military members to senior-level positions within the Department of Defense. The bill amends a law to restrict appointments to roles at or above GS-14 (senior-level) in the Department of Defense's competitive or excepted service. This directly affects retired members of the Armed Forces seeking such high-level positions in defense-related government work. The change modifies existing hiring rules but does not create new benefits or programs for veterans.
