Senior NCO Household Goods Shipment Equity Act of 2005

H.R. 1406, the Senior NCO Household Goods Shipment Equity Act of 2005, proposed an increase in the maximum weight allowance for shipping personal belongings and household goods during military relocations for senior noncommissioned officers. The bill aimed to narrow the gap between the moving allowances provided to senior enlisted personnel (grades E-7 through E-9) and those provided to mid-level commissioned officers. If enacted, this change would have reduced out-of-pocket moving expenses for high-ranking enlisted service members and their families when transferring to new duty stations.
