Referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
This bill requires the Commandant of the Coast Guard to submit a report to Congress within one year describing the status of implementing recommendations from a Government Accountability Office study on improving the Coast Guard's housing program. The GAO report, released in February 2024, identified ways to better collect feedback and use information to enhance housing availability and affordability for Coast Guard members. The legislation affects Coast Guard personnel who struggle with housing costs and availability issues. While the bill itself contains no direct funding appropriations, it creates accountability by requiring the Coast Guard to assess and report back to Congress on whether it is acting on the GAO's recommendations to improve its housing program.
