SA 3643. Mr. HOEVEN submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by
him to the bill S. 2296, to authorize appropriations for fiscal year
2026 for military activities of the Department of Defense, for military
construction, and for defense activities of the Department of Energy,
to prescribe military personnel strengths for such fiscal year, and for
other purposes; which was ordered to lie on the table; as follows:
At the end of subtitle C of title VII, add the following:
SEC. 724. SENSE OF SENATE ON TRUE NORTH PROGRAM OF THE AIR
FORCE.
It is the sense of the Senate that--
(1) the True North program of the Department of the Air
Force provides important mental health care benefits to
members of the Air Force;
[[Page S5403]]
(2) making such program available to some members of the
Air Force at particular installations without making it
available to others may create a perception of disparity; and
(3) in order to avoid the perception of disparity, the True
North program should operate on an installation-wide basis,
rather than on a unit-by-unit basis within that installation.
