Assembly Bill
No. 2736
| Introduced by Assembly Member Juan Carrillo (Coauthors: Assembly Members Addis, Alanis, Schiavo, and Soria) |
February 15, 2024 |
An act to repeal Section 896.1 of the Military and Veterans Code, relating to veterans.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2736, Juan Carrillo.
Veterans: benefits.
Existing law establishes various educational benefits for dependents of veterans who were killed during military service or are totally disabled, as specified. Existing law defines “dependent of a veteran” to include the spouse of a totally disabled veteran. Existing law prohibits a dependent of a veteran from receiving these educational benefits during the time the dependent is entitled to receive specified federal educational benefits or duplicate assistance from any other government source.
This bill would repeal that prohibition.
