A resolution urging the members of Congress to support the Major Richard Star Act to allow medically retired service members to receive full access to their much-deserved retirement pay and benefits.

Summary

The Iowa House resolution asks the U.S. Congress to support legislation that would let medically retired service members collect their full retirement benefits without the current offset that reduces pay. It targets veterans who retired early due to medical conditions, like Major Richard Star, and seeks to eliminate the $1,900‑a‑month average reduction. The measure highlights the moral obligation to provide veterans the benefits they earned.
