Bill Summary

Adoption Leave for Military Families Act This bill revises adoptive leave requirements for dual military couples to permit one service member to take up to 21 days of leave and the other service member to take up to 14 days of leave. (Current law permits up to 21 days of leave for only one service member.)

AI Summary

This bill, the Adoption Leave for Military Families Act, revises existing policies regarding adoptive leave for service members who are married to each other, known as dual military couples. Currently, only one service member in a dual military couple can take up to 21 days of leave to care for an adopted child. This bill amends that law to allow one service member to take up to 21 days of leave and the other service member to take up to 14 days of leave, effectively providing more flexibility and support for military families during the adoption process.
