Urging the United States Congress to pass the Major Richard Star Act

Summary

The resolution asks the U.S. Congress to approve legislation that would let disabled veterans receive both their full military retirement pay and VA disability compensation without a dollar‑for‑dollar reduction. It targets veterans who were medically retired with fewer than 20 years of service and currently lose part of their earned benefits. The measure highlights the financial hardship this offset creates for thousands of West Virginia veterans.
