House passage of bill: Rep. Gabe Vasquez said he supported the House passage of the Major Richard Star Act, a bipartisan bill now headed to the Senate. The legislation would let certain combat-injured veterans receive both military retirement pay and VA disability compensation.
Purpose of the measure: The release says current law can require some medically retired servicemembers with fewer than 20 years of service to forgo retirement pay to receive disability benefits. Backers say the bill would address that difference for combat-injured veterans.
Vasquez’s broader veterans agenda: Vasquez also pointed to other bills he has introduced or led on veterans’ food insecurity, health care access, a new Vet Center in Socorro, and higher education stipends for student veterans.
