United States119th CongressHR-1872House of Representatives
Updated: Apr 9, 2025

Summary

This bill aims to amend title 38, United States Code, to ensure that the Secretary of Veterans Affairs repays members of the Armed Forces for specific contributions they made towards their Post-9/11 Educational Assistance benefits. The primary objective is to guarantee that these service members receive reimbursement for their financial contributions. The legislation achieves this by amending section 3327(f)(3) of title 38, United States Code, specifically by striking certain existing language that may have previously limited or excluded these repayments. This targeted modification obligates the Department of Veterans Affairs to return these contributions to eligible service members. The provisions of this Act are scheduled to become effective on August 1, 2025 , ensuring the implementation of this repayment requirement.
