AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of Defense to make sure all military medical treatment facilities screen service members and their family members who have lived in unsafe housing for health conditions caused by that housing. It would also require the Secretary to create and maintain a registry of these individuals to track their health and its connection to the housing. The Secretary would have to run a public information campaign telling eligible people how to register and the benefits of registering. Unsafe housing is defined as a home that does not meet federal housing quality standards or is not free from dangerous air pollution levels from mold.
