Bill Summary

A BILL To require congressional notice of the cancellation or termination of contracts by the Department of Defense involving certain numbers of employees of contractors, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Rural Installation Job Protection Act," requires the Department of Defense (DoD) to provide Congress with at least 30 days' notice before cancelling or terminating a contract that involves a reduction in employment of at least 50 remote or isolated installation contractor employees or 100 total contractor employees. The Secretary of Defense can waive this requirement if they determine it is in the interest of national security, but must then provide the notice within one week of the cancellation or termination. The bill defines key terms like "remote or isolated installation" and "remote or isolated installation contractor employee" to ensure the policy is clear and targeted.
