I have been reading through the comments all morning and honestly the stories people are sharing about their service and what this program meant for their families are just gutting me. It is wild to think about how these legislators just want to brush aside those promises like they are nothing but paperwork while I am over here getting emails from folks who really relied on that education support to change their lives.

I honestly never thought this would gain this much steam but here we are and it makes me want to keep typing until my fingers cramp because these veterans deserve better than broken promises. It feels like the tide is finally turning against these ridiculous new rules and I am just so overwhelmed by how many of you stepped up to say enough is enough.

my husband served so he could get this for his degree. why are they trying to take it away now? leave it alone
This is ridiculous. These men and women already gave years of their lives to this country. The least the state can do is keep its word.
Keep the GI bill as is. Vets shouldn't have to battle the state government for what they earned.
They promised us these benefits when we signed up. Changing the rules now is just plain wrong.
A PROMISE IS A PROMISE. DONT SCREW OVER OUR VETS.

Just another way to cut corners on the backs of people who actually did something for this state. Embarrassing.
