What this amendment would do

SA 6442, submitted by Mr. Lankford, aims to make permanent the direct hire authority for the following:

  • Domestic defense industrial base facilities
  • The Major Range and Test Facilities Base
  • The Office of the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation

The amendment seeks to change the bill by adding a new section, Sec. 1599k, to chapter 81 of title 10, United States Code. This action codifies the text of section 1125 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 and repeals that original section.
