          <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Military Mental Health Professionals Support Act of 2023&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This bill exempts&amp;nbsp;licensed behavioral health providers from the computation and determination of authorized strengths (i.e., the largest number of members authorized to be in an armed force, a component, a branch, a grade, or any other category of the armed forces) for commissioned officers on active duty in certain grades. The bill adds licensed behavioral health providers to an existing exemption for medical officers. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</text>
