12/15/2004

On December 10, 2004, President Bush signed into law the Veterans’ Benefits Improvement Act (the “Act”). The Act modifies and extends housing, education, and other benefits for the Nation's veterans by amending portions of Title 38 of the United States Code, including the Uniform Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA). USERRA, enacted in October 1994, provides reemployment protection and other benefits for veterans and employees who perform military service.
