Repeals the following requirements with respect to the operation of Department of Defense (DOD) depots: (1) that not more than 40 percent of the funds made available in a fiscal year to a military department or defense agency for depot-level maintenance and repair workload activities may be used to hire non-Government personnel to perform such workload; and (2) that the Secretary of Defense ensure that the performance of such activities by current defense personnel is not changed to performance by a contractor or by another DOD depot-level activity unless such change is made using merit-based selection procedures or competitive procedures.

House Republican Conference Summary

The summary below was written by the House Republican Conference, which is the caucus of Republicans in the House of Representatives.

No summary available.

House Democratic Caucus Summary

The House Democratic Caucus does not provide summaries of bills.

So, yes, we display the House Republican Conference’s summaries when available even if we do not have a Democratic summary available. That’s because we feel it is better to give you as much information as possible, even if we cannot provide every viewpoint.

We’ll be looking for a source of summaries from the other side in the meanwhile.

United States Code

The United States Code is the compilation of permanent laws enacted by Congress. Temporary and other non-permanent laws do not appear in the United States Code. (About half of the United States Code is the law itself, called positive law. The other half is merely a compilation of the laws but has no legal significance.)
