The House approved bipartisan legislation cosponsored by Congressman Bill Posey (R-Rockledge) to assist student veterans attending colleges and universities under the G.I. Bill. The bill (H.R. 4830) ensures that veterans will not be penalized if the VA sends late payments to their schools due to paperwork processing delays.

“This legislation strengthens G.I. benefits and reaffirms our commitment to our military veterans and I pleased to see it pass the House with overwhelming bipartisan support,” said Congressman Posey. “It’s up to the Senate to send this much needed fix to the President’s desk.”
