Streamlining Military Infrastructure Act
To require the Secretary of Defense to assess the use of intergovernmental support agreements to carry out unspecified minor military construction projects, and for other purposes.
This bill, HB9738, proposes that the Secretary of Defense evaluate how intergovernmental support agreements can be used for minor military construction projects. These agreements are formal partnerships between the federal government and state or local governments that can help manage and fund these projects.
The bill would affect the Department of Defense and local governments by potentially streamlining the process for small-scale construction projects that support military operations. If passed, it could lead to more efficient use of resources and quicker project completion.
HB9738 was introduced on July 16, 2026, and was immediately referred to the House Committee on Armed Services for further review. As of now, the bill is in its early stages, and no further actions have been recorded. This committee will assess the proposal and determine the next steps for the bill.
