What this amendment would do

SA 6458, submitted by Mr. Hickenlooper, aims to add a new section to bill S. 4784. The purpose of this addition is to require a report on military suicide rates.

The amendment requires the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Homeland Security (for the Coast Guard) to provide a report to the House and Senate Committees on Armed Services within one year of the Act's enactment.

The report must break down suicide rates by:

  • Service component
  • Location and operational environment, specifically noting if the member served in the Middle East as part of operation Epic Fury or along the southern border as part of Operation Ardent Vanguard.
