Veteran Benefit Payments to Minor Clients

Summary

The bill lets the Department of Children and Families, the Department of Health, or the Agency for Persons with Disabilities access Veterans Affairs benefit funds that are held for a minor’s post‑secondary education and support services. Access is permitted when the minor reaches 18, or 23 if still enrolled in school, but the agencies cannot replace other financial aid provided under existing law. The measure would have taken effect on July 1 2026 but failed to pass.
