Bill > S4337

This bill, the Military Spouse Employment Act, amends Title 5 of the United States Code to authorize the appointment of spouses of active duty, disabled, or deceased members of the Armed Forces to positions in which they can work remotely. The bill defines "remote work" as a type of telework where the employee is not expected to report to an official agency location on a regular basis. The bill also defines "telework" as it is defined in existing law. This change is intended to provide more employment opportunities for military spouses, who often face challenges finding suitable jobs due to frequent relocations.
