Failing Mission

This past week, nearly a dozen national veterans and military service organizations assembled on Capitol Hill in a united front to voice their concerns about the House of Representatives’ Higher Education Act reauthorization, known as the PROSPER Act.

The PROSPER Act — which could head to the House floor on June 18 — would roll back major progress made protecting our nation’s warriors and their family members. These are vital protections and, if ended, will make higher education more expensive for service members, veterans and their family members. That’s why 35 veterans and military service organizations representing millions of veterans, their families and survivors oppose the PROSPER Act.
