About This Bill
Committee
Latest Action · March 2, 2026
Referred to the Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity.
H.R. 7472 would remove a restriction that currently prevents veterans from receiving assistance simultaneously from two major VA programs: the Veteran Readiness and Employment program (which helps disabled veterans prepare for work) and VA educational assistance programs (such as the GI Bill). The bill would strike subsection (b) of Section 3695 of title 38, U.S. Code, which currently imposes this limitation. The legislation would directly benefit veterans seeking to combine career training and educational benefits to advance their employment prospects. No specific funding amounts or implementation timelines are outlined in the bill text.
