Bill Summary
National Guard Promotion Accountability Act
AI Summary
This bill, the National Guard Promotion Accountability Act, aims to clarify the effective date of promotions for commissioned officers in the Army National Guard and Air National Guard, and improve the processes for federal recognition of these promotions. Specifically, the bill amends existing law to specify that the effective date of a promotion is the date the promotion is approved by the state, rather than the date the federal recognition is extended. The bill also requires the Secretaries of the Army and Air Force to notify Congress if scrolls (official records) indicating National Guard officer promotions are not published within 200 days of receipt, and to review and report on the processes for federal recognition of these promotions.
