Border Operations Service Medal Act

HR 3780, the Border Operations Service Medal Act, establishes a new service medal for military personnel who served in designated border security operations between January 1, 2025, and the conclusion of those operations. It directly affects active-duty service members, National Guard, and Reserve personnel who participated in these operations. The bill requires the Secretary of Defense to design and issue the medal within 60 days of enactment, authorizing its wear according to standard military uniform regulations. This is a procedural measure to formally recognize service during specific border operations authorized by the President in January 2025.
