AI Summary

This bill, the Veterans Rapid Retraining Assistance Program Restoration Act of 2022, aims to restore educational assistance under the Veterans Rapid Retraining Program in cases where an educational institution closes or a program of education is disapproved. Specifically, it amends the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 to provide that any retraining assistance payments will not be charged against the individual's entitlement if they were unable to complete a course or program due to the closure of an educational institution or the disapproval of a program by the state approving agency or the Secretary. The period of retraining assistance not charged will be equal to the full amount provided for enrollment in the program. Additionally, the bill halts further payments to the educational institution in the event of a closure or disapproval.
