AI Summary
This bill, the Guard and Reserve GI Bill Parity Act of 2024, aims to expand eligibility for the Post-9/11 Educational Assistance program to include members of the National Guard who perform certain full-time duty, such as active duty and full-time National Guard duty. The bill amends the existing law to broaden the definition of eligible service members, allowing National Guard members to access the educational benefits provided by the Post-9/11 GI Bill. The amendments made by this bill will take effect one year after the date of enactment and apply retroactively to service performed on or after September 11, 2001, with the time limitation for using the entitlement applied as if the amendments had been part of the original Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008.
