AI Summary

  • Pennsylvania House Resolution urging U.S. Congress to expand TRICARE Reserve Select (TRS) eligibility to include National Guard and Armed Forces reserve members who are enrolled or eligible for the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program

  • Federal employees serving in the National Guard or Armed Forces reserve are currently prohibited from enrolling in TRICARE Reserve Select coverage

  • The current prohibition creates a financial disincentive for reservists to work for the federal government and undermines TRS as a military recruiting tool

  • States cannot change TRICARE eligibility requirements because TRICARE is a federal program, requiring congressional action

  • Copies of the resolution would be transmitted to presiding officers of both houses of Congress and all Pennsylvania members of Congress
