Purpose and Summary

Referred to the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs.
Bill 118 hr 10327, also known as the Career Transition Internship Program for Veterans Act, aims to amend title 38 of the United States Code to allow veterans who are eligible for educational assistance under the Post-9/11 Educational Assistance Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs to use this benefit to participate in a career transition internship program specifically designed for veterans.

The bill seeks to provide veterans with more opportunities to transition into civilian careers by allowing them to gain valuable work experience through internships. By utilizing their educational assistance benefits for this purpose, veterans can acquire new skills, build professional networks, and increase their chances of securing meaningful employment after their military service.

This legislation is intended to support veterans in their transition to civilian life and help them successfully reintegrate into the workforce. It recognizes the unique challenges that veterans face when transitioning out of the military and aims to provide them with the resources and support they need to thrive in their post-service careers. Overall, the Career Transition Internship Program for Veterans Act is a bipartisan effort to empower and assist veterans in their career transitions, ultimately benefiting both the veterans themselves and the broader society.
