The requirement is a compromise worked out between the House and Senate Veterans Affairs committees on the proposal for one year of health care coverage that I introduced inH.R. 5024. The requirement is included inS.785, a package of bills Congress sent to the White House for signature on Wednesday. Providing one year of health care after discharge would greatly help veterans and their families make the transition to civilian life. By removing the worry of health care, I want to free them to focus on their next steps in education, employment, and housing, and ultimately make the transition successful. VA must submit the strategic plan to Congress no later than one year after the bill's enactment. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
