BREAKING: Statement on GHC Contract Termination

For many months, military families and those who move them have sounded the alarm about the failure of the GHC rollout. On behalf of the independent contractors and businesses — large and small — who work together to move our military families, we commend the Defense Department for its decisive leadership to address the failed Global Household Goods Contract (GHC). Today’s announcement reflects Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s promises made and kept for military families and the hardworking Americans who are dedicated to serving them.

The GHC’s attempt at reform resulted in the worsening of Permanent Change of Station (PCS) moves, with a rigid structure that ignored the economic and logistical realities of military moves. We welcome Secretary Hegseth’s swift action to course correct, and we urge the newly established PCS Joint Task Force to continue collaborating with experienced industry representatives as plans for the strategic path forward are now underway. Movers for America remains dedicated to ensuring the highest quality moving experience for our service members and their families.
