If Veterans can be TRUSTED to serve our country, they should also be trusted to use their GI Bill benefits however they choose. After all, they EARNED them!
The @DeptVetAffairs is about to deny access to educational benefits that they earned.

Congress just strengthened the VA’s GI Bill Comparison Tool, turning it into a real transparency and accountability resource. That means smarter data and stronger protections so Veterans can make better decisions. Click the link to learn more:

VEP is leading the call for outcomes-based higher ed accountability. It's time to retire outdated rules and ensure schools serving Veterans and Servicemembers are measured by success, not sector.

VEP is proud that the AHEAD Committee has reached consensus on Title IV reforms, with our own Matthew Feehan serving as lead negotiator for Student Veterans.
This is a major step forward in protecting Veteran benefits and ensuring Veterans’ voices shape policy. @usedgov

The FY26 NDAA is a win for military families and transitioning servicemembers.
It invests in DoD schools and strengthens the Transition Assistance Program (TAP), including new pilot programs for spouses and pathways into critical careers.
Education is readiness.

Congress just took a big step for student veterans. The Veterans Education Empowerment Act will expand campus resources & support. Proud to back this bipartisan bill from @RepGusBilirakis & @RepLoisFrankel.

On Veterans Day, we honor the service and sacrifice of those who wore the uniform. Education is more than a benefit; it’s a life-saving pathway. Educational opportunity can help prevent Veteran suicide and homelessness. Let’s keep that promise.

VEP proudly joins 25 fellow VSO/MSOs in condemning the Washington Post’s irresponsible attack on disabled Veterans. The VA system may need improvement, but this narrative harms those it claims to scrutinize. Read our full response. #WaPoWrongOnVets

The longer Democrats' shutdown goes on, the longer these key programs are held hostage for servicemembers, veterans, and their families:
🇺🇸 Transition Assistance Program career counseling
🇺🇸 Vital suicide prevention programs
🇺🇸 Grant funding for veteran homelessness providers

A recent @washingtonpost piece unfairly stigmatizes disabled Veterans and undermines public trust. Claims are reviewed by professionals, not Veterans. VEP supports @SecVetAffairs in improving oversight, but fixes should strengthen the system, not shame those who rely on it.

VEP applauds @DeptVetAffairs on their latest achievement: over 2.52 million disability rating claims processed this year, a new record. That’s a 37% reduction in backlog since January 20. Well done @SecVetAffairs.
