Congressional Access to Military Posts Act of 2025

HR 1170, the Congressional Access to Military Posts Act of 2025, requires the Department of Defense to grant immediate access to covered U.S. and Guam military installations for Members of Congress and their accompanying staff upon presentation of a valid congressional identification badge. This eliminates the need for prior scheduling for access to installations where a Department of Defense common access card is the sole standard requirement for military personnel. The bill specifically applies to Senators, Representatives, Delegates, and Resident Commissioners, and defines "covered installation" as those using DoD common access cards as the sole access method. It does not alter security protocols but streamlines access for congressional oversight visits.
