Rep. Van Orden Speaks in Support of his VETT Act on the House Floor

Published | Video Starts at 00:08

Chairman thank you Mr. Speaker. I'm honored today to speak on behalf of my legislation HR5914, the VET Act. This legislation addresses unnecessary barriers that veterans face while trying to access educational benefits that they earned during their time of service and it ensures a more effective transition to civilian life. One important provision in the VET act addresses a burdensome administrative requirement by reversing the current mandate for individualized shopping sheets. (00:08–00:20)
