What this bill would do

The "SERVE Act" aims to increase military recruitment by giving recruiters better access to high school students and their information. It requires schools to allow recruiters more frequent visits in high-traffic areas and provides recruiters with student names, genders, and academic grades. The bill also expands JROTC access through "cross-town" units for students whose schools lack a program. Additionally, it creates a "HERO schools" pilot program and gives priority admission to service academies for students from schools with high enlistment rates. Finally, it establishes a National Week of Military Recruitment.
