Bill overview
This bill requires the Archivist of the United States to create and regularly update a plan to significantly reduce the backlog of veteran record requests at the National Personnel Records Center. The plan must detail the extent of the backlog, set targets for elimination, outline how existing funds will be used to improve technology, and include strategies to prevent future delays. It also mandates consultation with the Department of Veterans Affairs and provides for additional funding and staffing to address the issue.
