- Description:
- The document is from Congressman James R. Jones to Mr. Ron Gill, thanking him for visiting the Mobile Congressional office and updating him on the status of legislation to extend GI education benefits from 8 to 10 years. The House of Representatives passed a bill, H.R. 12628, and the Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs is considering it. Prospects for passage are good, and both Houses agree on the importance of extending veterans' education benefits before the current benefits expire on May 31st. Congressman Jones supported the bill in the House and will continue to support measures benefiting veterans.
