This bill would require the Department of Labor, working with the Department of Veterans Affairs, to create and publish a notice for each state listing federal benefits for veterans, within 270 days of the bill becoming law. Each notice must include information on the Veterans Crisis Line, how to apply for benefits, and any state veterans benefits the state chooses to provide. Employers with 50 or more employees, including public agencies, would have to post the notice where they post other workplace notices, starting one year after the bill becomes law. The departments would review the notices at least twice a year and run a 180-day campaign to inform employers about the notices and the posting rule.
