Provide for modifications to the State Partnership Program selection analysis.

This bill tells the Department of Defense to change how it picks which U.S. states get matched with foreign partners in the State Partnership Program. The National Guard leader must look at how many partnerships each state already has and give priority to states that only have one active partner country. The goal is to spread partnerships more fairly across states and avoid piling many partnerships into just a few places .

Key points:

• Who is affected: State National Guards and their partner countries abroad .
• What changes: The selection process must consider the number of current partnerships and favor states with only one active partnership .
• When: The Defense Department is directed to update its instruction to make this happen; no specific date is given in the text .
