Commitment to Veteran Support and Outreach Act
Would have let the VA give states grants to help veterans and families file benefit claims.
Tradeoff
Would have funded state veteran outreach grants, with no dollar cost stated in the available summary. Would have prioritized areas with few veterans service officers and high veteran suicide rates.
