POSTURE Act of 2016

Protecting Our Security Through Utilizing Right-Sized End-Strengths Act of 2016 or the POSTURE Act of 2016

This bill expresses the sense of Congress that given the uncertain world and the need for trained and ready U.S. land forces, the planned drawdown of land forces should cease.

The bill sets forth:

• Army, Marine Corps, and Selected Reserve strength levels as of September 30, 2016; and
• Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force permanent active duty end strength minimum levels.
