Delaney Sponsers Veterans Education bill

July 20th, 2013 by WCBC Radio

Bipartisan veterans’ legislation introduced by Congressman John K. Delaney (MD-6) has been approved by the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity. H.R. 2011, the Veterans’ Advisory Committee on Education Improvement Act, passed through subcommittee markup on Thursday, July 18, and has now been referred to the full House Committee on Veterans Affairs.  Introduced on May 16, 2013, the legislation authorizes the Veterans’ Advisory Committee on Education through December 31, 2015, and expands the makeup of the Committee to include post 9/11 veterans. Absent legislative action, the Veterans’ Advisory Committee on Education will sunset on December 31, 2013.
