Bill Would Allow More Transfers of Education Benefits

A bill introduced by U.S. Rep. John Katko and a Democratic colleague would enable more military service members to transfer Post-9/11 G.I. Bill education benefits to their spouses or children.

Service members may also transfer assistance if they have logged at least 10 years and commit to serving the maximum amount of time allowed.
