Bill overview
The Brandon Act aims to improve how the military refers service members to mental health evaluations. Currently, the process isn't always clear or consistently implemented. This bill requires commanding officers and supervisors to actively seek referrals from service members who request them and to do so promptly. It also emphasizes protecting the confidentiality of these referrals, mirroring the protections for sensitive military reports.
