AI Summary
This bill, the Driver Reimbursement Increase for Veteran Equity Act (DRIVE Act), amends Title 38 of the United States Code to increase the mileage rate offered by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) through their Beneficiary Travel program for health-related travel. Specifically, the bill requires the VA Secretary to set the mileage rate for beneficiary travel at a minimum level, rather than having the ability to set the rate, and removes the current one-year delay before this change can take effect.
