<description>This bill became a law with a unanimous voice vote . What is there unique to how this bill became law? Why was it voted and codified this way? Host country resident personal service contractors can mean Peace Corps Volunteers. It can also mean retirement of a contractor. The contractor agreement has no retirement pension in the contract because the contract or contractors are subject to the five year opportunity law for employees and contracts. The employees and contractors outside of the US are being allowed pensions, while the employees and contractors in the US are not; based on the Director deciding if they have the five year employment opportunity law waived and benefits for retirement benefits and pensions. The Director also controls the department pensions at Treasury. 

This bill was forced, but why? Do these pensions already exist and was it legal for them to be created?...</description>
