Ensuring Benefits for Disabled Veterans Act
Sponsored By: Senator King, Angus S., Jr. [I-ME]
Introduced
Summary
Removes a statutory limit that prevented some disabled veterans from receiving both Veteran Readiness and Employment (VRE) services and VA education benefits. The bill would repeal subsection (b) of 38 U.S.C. §3695 and redesignate subsection (c) as subsection (b), eliminating that restriction and reorganizing the statute’s text without creating new programs, funding, or other eligibility changes.

More VA education help for veterans
