Combat Veterans Retirement Restoration Act
Refreshed 2 h ago
Introduced 2026-09-16Topic: veterans militarySummary
AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would let military members who were medically retired with a combat-related disability receive both their military retired pay and their veterans' disability compensation, without the usual offset that reduces one by the other. Those with 20 or more years of service could receive the full retired pay they would have earned based on service plus disability compensation. Those with fewer than 20 years could receive both payments, but capped at the lesser of two calculated amounts. The bill authorizes $9.4 billion for the Secretary of Defense to carry out these changes, which would apply to payments for months starting on or after January 1, 2027.
