Plain Language Summary

# HR 4547 Summary **What the Bill Does:** This bill would advance Thomas B. Hagen on the Navy's retired list. "Advancing" means moving him to a higher rank on the retirement rolls than he currently holds. This is a special legislative action typically used to correct perceived injustices or recognize service that Congress believes was not properly acknowledged. **Who It Affects:** The bill directly affects only Thomas B. Hagen, a retired Navy officer.

It would increase his retirement pay and benefits to reflect the higher rank. No other individuals or groups would be impacted. **Current Status:** The bill was introduced by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. The bill contains no detailed subject information in the record, so the specific circumstances behind Hagen's case are not publicly documented in this summary.
