Bill Summary

A BILL To amend title 10, United States Code, to require the Secretary of Defense to establish and maintain a joint reserve detachment of the Defense Innovation Unit, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the "Joint Reserve Detachment (JRD) Formalization Act," amends title 10 of the United States Code to change the language regarding the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), a Department of Defense organization focused on rapidly adapting commercial technology for military applications. Specifically, the bill modifies an existing section of law by replacing permissive language that allows the Secretary of Defense to "may establish" a joint reserve detachment with mandatory language requiring the Secretary to "shall establish and maintain" such a detachment. This change effectively transforms the creation of a joint reserve detachment for the DIU from an optional action to a required one, potentially ensuring a more consistent and structured approach to integrating reserve personnel with the innovative technology-focused unit.
