Bill > HR3790

This bill, the Justice for ALS Veterans Act of 2023, aims to extend increased dependency and indemnity compensation paid to surviving spouses of veterans who die from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), regardless of how long the veterans had the disease prior to death. The bill also requires the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to submit a report identifying any other service-connected disabilities with mortality rates exceeding 95% within eight years of diagnosis, and to provide detailed information on the average life expectancy for persons with each such disability. Additionally, the bill modifies the expiration date for certain housing loan fees from November 15, 2031, to December 2, 2031.
