Recover Pride in Service Act

HR 7411, the Recover Pride in Service Act, requires the Department of Defense to automatically upgrade all military discharges based solely on sexual orientation to honorable status without veterans needing to apply. It directly affects veterans discharged under such policies, including those separated before September 20, 2011. Key provisions include amending review procedures to eliminate documentation requirements for veterans seeking review, establishing a Defense Outreach Unit to notify affected veterans within 60 days, and mandating a 5-year timeline for full implementation. The bill also requires annual progress reports to Congress on discharge upgrades and final reports detailing outcomes like the number of upgrades completed.
