Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would add a new section to federal veterans' education law covering students who used Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits at a school. It would bar a school from holding back the transcript of such a student solely because the student owes the school money. The rule would apply to students who attended a course or program at that school using these benefits.
