AI Summary
This bill, the Welcome Home Veterans Act of 2023, aims to provide for the opt-out sharing of information on members retiring or separating from the U.S. Armed Forces with community-based organizations and related entities. It proposes amending Section 570F of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 to allow service members to opt-out of having their information transmitted to and through their state veterans agency, which was previously the default unless the individual indicated an email address. This change would make the opt-out the default, requiring service members to actively choose to opt-out if they do not want their information shared.
