It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.
Expanding Defense Community Partnerships Act
To amend title 10, United States Code, to expand authorities for intergovernmental support agreements for the Department of Defense, and for other purposes.
Summary
This bill expands the Department of Defense's authority to enter into intergovernmental support agreements with state, local, and tribal governments to share and receive installation-support services. It allows the Department of Defense, state governments, and local or tribal governments to collaborate with other federal agencies to jointly provide or receive such services. The bill also expands the funding sources available to the Department of Defense for paying these service costs to include operation and maintenance, research and development, ammunition procurement, military construction, and non-appropriated funds. It extends the authorization for these agreements from September 30, 2025 to September 30, 2030 and establishes a pilot program allowing the Army, Navy, and Air Force each to enter into one intergovernmental support agreement lasting up to 20 years, instead of the normal term limits. These changes are designed to enhance collaboration between the military and local communities for facility support and shared services.
