Veterans Educational Equity Act Will Benefit Student Vets (Rep. Buck McKeon)

by Calif. GOP Rep. Howard 'Buck' McKeon - 05/21/09 12:46 PM ET

I’m glad to see everyone coming together on this issue, because starting in August, I think hundreds of thousands of student vets will be unpleasantly surprised to find they don’t have the education dollars they were expecting through the post-9/11 GI Bill. I know this means a lot to the state, the California delegation, and our nation’s veterans. It needs to be addressed quickly.
