“We have a responsibility to serve those who have bravely served us,” said Congresswoman Betsy Markey. “The Post-9/11 GI Bill will provide more opportunities for our newest veterans. I am proud that Congress came together to pass a historic bill that will open doors for our veterans, strengthen our economy, and help military recruitment.”
