Depending on its provisions, it could also affect state veterans' programs that coordinate with the federal VA system. **Current Status:** The bill was introduced by Rep. Mike Bost (R-IL) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it hasn't yet been debated or voted on by the full House. Without access to the detailed legislative language, specific provisions cannot be confirmed at this time.
