We are working to strengthen protections for members of the Armed Forces against unfair and threatening debt collection practices, ensuring they are treated with respect and not subjected to harassment related to rank, security clearances, or military justice proceedings. This legislation also calls for a study to assess how these changes affect military readiness and national security.
