McKinney residents, Army Maj. Ron Poynter, and his wife, Rebecca Noah Poynter, a Richardson native, recently visited U.S. Rep. Sam Johnson’s office on Capitol Hill to promote H.R. 1182, the Military Spouse Residency Act. 

The bill allows a military spouse who moves out of a state with a service member under military orders to have the option to claim the same state of domicile as their active-duty spouse, regardless of where they are stationed. 

Johnson is a co-sponsor of the measure and represents portions of CollinCounty.
