HR 6154 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.
A bill to amend title 38, United States Code, to increase the amount of compensation payable to veterans who have suffered total blindness without light perception as a result of a service-connected disability.
