Speaker Pelosi, Education Committee Democrats Promote Bill Restricting Veterans' Choice at Career Schools

In a stunning press conference led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, House Democratic leaders rolled out a massive bill that includes disturbing language aimed at restricting choice for military veterans, servicemembers and their families at private career, technical and trade schools. 

Buried on page 770 of a bill close to 1,200 pages long, the College Affordability Act seeks to change the 90/10 rule to 85/15 and label earned veteran education benefits, like the GI Bill®, as similar to federal student loans and grants. 

If this bill passes in its current form, Congress is essentially telling veterans that they are incapable of choosing the school that best fits their career goals.
