Washington, DC \u2013 El Senador de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, emiti\u00f3 la siguiente declaraci\u00f3n despu\u00e9s de que los republicanos del Senado rechazaran un proyecto de ley que mejorar\u00eda los beneficios de atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica, educaci\u00f3n y capacitaci\u00f3n laboral para los veteranos. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cApoyar a nuestros veteranos no deber\u00eda ser un tema partidista. Nuestros hombres y mujeres uniformados nos han defendido, y nosotros debemos hacerlo por ellos. Desafortunadamente, los republicanos est\u00e1n anteponiendo la pol\u00edtica a las buenas pol\u00edticas para nuestros veteranos. Los veteranos de Oreg\u00f3n merecen algo mejor\u201d. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
La Ley Integral de Salud y Beneficios para Veteranos y la Ley de Restauraci\u00f3n del Pago de Jubilaci\u00f3n Militar de 2014 ayudar\u00eda a la Administraci\u00f3n de Veteranos a trabajar para poner fin a la acumulaci\u00f3n de solicitudes de beneficios, mejorar la atenci\u00f3n y los beneficios para las v\u00edctimas de trauma sexual, ampliar las oportunidades educativas para los veteranos y ayudar a fomentar la contrataci\u00f3n. de los veterinarios al renovar la Ley Vow to Hire Heroes. <\/p>\n
El proyecto de ley tambi\u00e9n incluye la Ley de Educaci\u00f3n para C\u00f3nyuges de H\u00e9roes del Senador Merkley, que otorgar\u00eda beneficios educativos a los valientes c\u00f3nyuges de militares que pierden a sus parejas en el servicio. Actualmente, los c\u00f3nyuges de los miembros del servicio ca\u00eddos solo son elegibles para recibir beneficios educativos federales bajo el Programa de Asistencia Educativa para Sobrevivientes y Dependientes. Este programa proporciona una asignaci\u00f3n de hasta $936 por mes, pero a menudo no cubre el costo total de la matr\u00edcula y las tarifas. La Ley de Educaci\u00f3n de C\u00f3nyuges de H\u00e9roes modifica el proyecto de ley GI posterior al 11 de septiembre para expandir la Beca Fry, que proporciona matr\u00edcula y tarifas estatales completas a los hijos de los miembros del servicio que han muerto en el cumplimiento del deber. Este cambio permitir\u00eda a los c\u00f3nyuges recibir el costo total de la matr\u00edcula y las tarifas de pregrado p\u00fablicas en el estado, m\u00e1s un estipendio mensual para vivir y una asignaci\u00f3n para libros.<\/p>\n
