The task force would include at least 18 members from the Departments of Veterans Affairs, Health and Human Services, Education, and Defense, plus three nonprofit representatives. It would arrange a national study of people under age 26 who give unpaid care to veterans or service members with disabilities, illnesses, or injuries, consult with stakeholders, and make policy recommendations to Congress and other agencies. The task force would report to Congress each year and would end five years after the law takes effect.
