A bill to expand eligibility for Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps unit participation.

Bill 118 s 4513, also known as the "Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) Expansion Act," aims to broaden the eligibility criteria for high schools to participate in the JROTC program. The JROTC program is a military-sponsored program that aims to instill leadership skills, citizenship, and discipline in high school students.

The bill proposes to expand eligibility for JROTC unit participation to include schools that have a student population of at least 100 students, rather than the current requirement of 1000 students. This change would allow smaller schools to participate in the program and provide more students with the opportunity to benefit from the JROTC curriculum.

Additionally, the bill seeks to increase funding for JROTC units in schools that serve low-income communities. This funding would help ensure that all students, regardless of their socioeconomic background, have access to the valuable resources and opportunities provided by the JROTC program. Overall, the JROTC Expansion Act aims to make the JROTC program more accessible and inclusive, allowing a greater number of students to benefit from the valuable skills and experiences it offers.
