Bill Summary

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 to ensure that certain military retirees do not have their retired pay adjusted annually before they reach the age of 62. Specifically, it would exempt members who are retired due to disability from this annual adjustment. Additionally, it clarifies that the portion of a retiree's pay used to calculate survivor benefits under the Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) will not be subject to this pre-62 adjustment, meaning the SBP annuity will be based on the retiree's pay as if the annual adjustment had not occurred. The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 is a law that, in part, changed how military retired pay is adjusted for those under 62, and this bill seeks to create exceptions to that change for disability retirees and for the calculation of SBP annuities.
