H.R. 7369: VENTURE Act
Legislation Details
117th Congress
To amend title 38, United States Code, to expand the eligibility of veterans who may receive self-employment assistance under the Veteran Readiness and Employment program of the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Sponsor: Rep. Mike Levin — D — CA
Expands the eligibility for self-employment assistance to all eligible veterans with service-connected disabilities, not just those with the most severe disabilities. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides vocational services to veterans with service-connected disabilities that limit their ability to find employment. Under current law, veterans with the most severe service-connected disabilities, as determined by VA, may be eligible for training and assistance to become self-employed. VA provides management training, license fees, equipment, supplies, materials, and other vocational services to such veterans if VA determines that they have viable business plans.
