 To amend title 10, United States Code, to ensure equitable treatment 
  for members of the Armed Forces from outside the continental United 
 States in the provision of excess leave and permissive temporary duty 
    in connection with the separation of the members from the Armed

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

SECTION 1. EXCESS LEAVE AND PERMISSIVE TEMPORARY DUTY.

    (a) Equitable Treatment of Members from Outside the Continental 
United States.--Section 1149 of title 10, United States Code, is 
amended--
            (1) by inserting ``(a) Provision as Part of Separation.--'' 
        before ``Under regulations''; and
            (2) by adding at the end the following new subsection:
    ``(b) Members from Outside the Continental United States.--(1) In 
prescribing regulations under subsection (a), the Secretary of Defense 
shall ensure that a member whose home of record is outside the 
continental United States and who is stationed inside the continental 
United States at the time of the separation of the member will be 
eligible to receive the same amount of excess leave or permissive 
temporary duty under this section as a member who is stationed 
overseas.
    ``(2) In this subsection, the term `continental United States' 
means the 48 contiguous States and the District of Columbia.''.
    (b) Report on Other Areas of Inequitable Treatment.--Not later than 
180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of 
Defense shall submit a report to Congress--
            (1) describing all provisions of law concerning pay and 
        allowances for members of the Armed Forces in which members 
        whose homes of record are outside the continental United States 
        and who are stationed inside the continental United States 
        receive different treatment than members who are stationed 
        outside the United States; and
            (2) containing recommendations to equalize such treatment.

                                 <all>
