Luttrell Introduces Legislation to Support Veterans
WASHINGTON – Congressman Morgan Luttrell (R-TX), Chairman of the Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Disability Assistance and Memorial Affairs (DAMA), today introduced the Veterans Compensation Cost of Living Adjustment Act of 2024. This legislation will increase the rates of compensation for veterans with service-connected disabilities, as well as the rates of dependency and indemnity compensation for the survivors of certain veterans as of December 1, 2024. The increase in VA benefits would equal the cost-of-living increase provided for certain Social Security benefits.
“We have an obligation to support the veterans who have served and sacrificed for our country,” said Congressman Luttrell. “The legislation I introduced today will make certain our veterans are able to meet their financial needs, especially in these challenging times. I look forward to continuing to work with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to improve the lives of veterans and their families.”
