AI Summary
This bill, the Fairness for Servicemembers and their Families Act of 2024, requires the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to periodically review the automatic maximum coverage under the Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) program and the Veterans' Group Life Insurance (VGLI) program. The review will compare the current maximum coverage amount to an amount calculated based on the average percentage change in the Consumer Price Index over the previous five fiscal years.
