I don't know much about this new bill, but it sounds like it's gonna mess things up for us veterans. I don't trust the government to do anything right, so I'm sure this is just gonna make things worse. I hope it doesn't affect my benefits too much. #HRBill6047 #VeteransBenefitsExpansionAct Short term affects of this bill are uncertain, but I hope it doesn't make things harder for us veterans.
