U.S. Reps. Sanford Bishop, D-GA, and Jen Kiggans, R-VA, have introduced the Military Housing Performance Insight Act. The bill’s aim is to increase oversight of the Military Housing Privatization Initiative, working to make Congressional reports publicly available regarding the Defense Department program to privatize military housing located on military installations.
“Our military families deserve safe, good-quality housing. When deplorable conditions are brought to our attention, Congress must hold those who provide this housing accountable. I introduced this bill so that reports that track the conditions of military family housing are public. Transparency builds public trust in our efforts to address shortcomings and ensures we do our best for those who sacrifice and serve our country,” said Bishop. “I am proud to lead this bill with Congresswoman Kiggans which helps fulfill the mission of the Congressional Military Family Caucus we lead.”
