Posts - Bill - S 1714 Disabled Veterans Housing Support Act
senate 05/12/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to ensure that service-connected disability compensation isn’t counted as income when determining eligibility for housing programs, so disabled veterans have fairer access to affordable housing. This change aims to recognize their unique circumstances and improve support for those who have served.

Finally, a win for our disabled vets—because counting their disability pay as income was just kicking them while they’re down.
