Servicemember Civilian Transition Support Act

This bill requires the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness to name, within 90 days, a senior Department of Defense official to oversee policies and programs that help service members move from active duty to civilian life or the reserves. The official must have experience with veterans services and knowledge of the transition process. The official would advise top defense leaders, act as the department's chief transition officer, oversee the Military-Civilian Transition Office, and review programs such as the Transition Assistance Program and Skillbridge. The official would also work with the Departments of Veterans Affairs, Labor, and Education, and with state, local, and nonprofit groups, and the Secretary of Defense must brief Congress's defense committees within 90 days.
