HR 6002 Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.
To amend title 38, United States Code, to expand the set of individuals eligible to transfer Post-9/11 educational assistance to eligible dependents.
Summary
This bill expands eligibility to transfer Post-9/11 GI Bill educational benefits to eligible dependents. It broadens the definition of who can transfer these benefits from "members of the uniformed services" to "individuals," and adds new categories of eligible people: those who have completed at least 17 years of service in the Armed Forces and those who are medically retired from the Armed Forces. The effect would be to allow more veterans and service members to pass their education benefits to their families.
