On April 6, Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland (WA-10) and Congressman Don Bacon (NE-02) introduced the Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) Restoration Act to address the housing crunch that servicemembers and their families face. The legislation would mandate that the Department of Defense (DoD) restore the full BAH benefit and increase access to affordable housing, on and off base. Senator Raphael Warnock (D-GA) is introducing companion legislation in the Senate.
