Def cit Effect


The bill would
  * Cap the maximum amount of educational benefits paid by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for flight-
    training programs
  * Expand benefits for veterans buried in non-VA cemeteries
  * Extend the period of availability for funds that have already been appropriated

Estimated budgetary effects would primarily stem from
  * Reduced benefits under Post-9/1 1 GI Bill for flight-training programs
  * Increased costs for burial benefits in non-VA cemeteries
  * Reappropriated funds that are unobligated and unspent since 2017

Areas of significant uncertainty include
  * Number of beneficiaries participating in flight-training programs and the costs of those programs
  * Number of individuals that will utilize burial benefits
