HR-6629 : Still Just a Bill

The "Developing Master Plans for Military Service Academies Act of 2025" (H.R. 6629) proposes to enhance the strategic planning and resilience of U.S. military Service Academies.

Key provisions of this bill include:

• Directing each Secretary of a military department to create a comprehensive master plan for every Service Academy under their jurisdiction. These plans are intended to address all infrastructure requirements.
• Requiring each master plan to include:
  • A detailed list of infrastructure currently in poor or failing condition and a strategy for its replacement, recapitalization, or renovation within five years of the plan's completion deadline.
  • A list of infrastructure with historic significance (listed on or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places).
  • An assessment of potential risks, such as disruptions in energy availability, extreme weather events, cybersecurity threats, and the availability of clean water.
• Mandating that these master plans propose methods to address the requirements for historic infrastructure and the identified risks within five years of their completion deadline.
• Setting a deadline for all master plans to be completed by September 30, 2027.
• Requiring the Secretaries of military departments to provide a briefing to the House and Senate Armed Services Committees within 180 days of the bill's enactment and to submit the completed plans to these committees by December 1, 2027, or 30 days after completion, whichever comes first.
