Rep. Jackie Speier, a Democrat from California and a member of the House Armed Services Committee, praised the recent work of the Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission. The panel called for offering troops 401(k)-like retirement plans and military families a choice of commercial health insurance plans in lieu of Tricare, among other proposals.

Should the DoD look at ways to provide compensation and benefits to Military and Civilian employees more efficiently and at lower cost? Yes. Should Congress crank up the good idea machine and tell DoD how and what to do? No! Your Democrat Congress person is probably looking for a way to cut the military budget.
