Bill overview
This bill directs the Department of Defense to review and improve the process for calculating cost of living adjustments (COLAs) for military personnel and civilian employees stationed in California’s 19th Congressional District. It recognizes that the cost of living in this district, particularly in areas like Monterey and Santa Clara, is significantly higher than the national average and that current COLA calculations may not fully reflect these expenses. The bill seeks to ensure that military members and civilian employees receive adequate compensation for the high cost of living in their duty stations.
