What this amendment would do

SA 6014, submitted by Mrs. Blackburn and Mr. Warnock, aims to expand who can enroll in Department of Defense Education Activity schools. It proposes changes to Section 2164(n) of title 10, United States Code.

The amendment seeks to make the following changes:

  • Change the subsection heading from Reserve Components to Armed Forces.
  • Allow enrollment on a tuition-free basis.
  • Change the requirement that schools shall grant enrollment to stating they may grant enrollment.
  • Remove the requirement that the member be at the military installation that is their permanent station.
  • Define eligible members as those of the armed forces who:
    • Serve on active duty or full-time National Guard duty.
    • Do not reside on an installation supported by a school established under that section.
    • Relocated to their permanent station via an order for a permanent change of station accompanied by dependents.

The amendment specifies that these changes only apply to schools located within the several States. It does not apply to schools in territories or possessions of the United States or installations selected under subsection (c) of section 2164b.
