Summary of Bill HR 1527

Bill 119 hr 1527, also known as the "Veterans Education Improvement Act," aims to make improvements to the laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs relating to educational assistance for veterans. The bill seeks to enhance the educational benefits available to veterans by expanding eligibility criteria and increasing funding for educational programs.

One key provision of the bill is the expansion of eligibility for educational assistance to include certain members of the National Guard and Reserve who have been called to active duty. This change would allow more veterans to access the educational benefits they have earned through their service to the country.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions to increase the amount of funding available for educational programs, such as the Post-9/11 GI Bill, which provides financial assistance to veterans pursuing higher education. This increase in funding would help to ensure that veterans have access to the resources they need to further their education and transition successfully to civilian life. Overall, the Veterans Education Improvement Act aims to support veterans in their pursuit of higher education by making important improvements to the laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs. By expanding eligibility criteria and increasing funding for educational programs, the bill seeks to provide veterans with the support they need to succeed in their post-military careers.
