United States119th CongressS-385Senate
Updated: Feb 4, 2025

Summary

The "Fairness for Servicemembers and their Families Act of 2025" mandates the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to conduct a periodic review of the automatic maximum coverage under the Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) and Veterans' Group Life Insurance (VGLI) programs. Beginning January 1, 2026, and every five years thereafter, the Secretary must compare the current maximum coverage amount to an inflation-adjusted figure. This adjusted amount is calculated by multiplying $500,000 by the average percentage change in the Consumer Price Index over the preceding five fiscal years. The results of this review will be submitted to the House and Senate Committees on Veterans' Affairs, serving as a guide for potential coverage increases within existing administrative structures.
