@realDonaldTrump protecting bottom lines of #4profit colleges over America’s #Veterans; Congress needs to step in. https://t.co/oWT4TKnCX2

“Congress needs to stop the @usedgov from dismantling rules that protect students generally, and veterans in particular, from exploitation, and close the loophole in the 90/10 rule.” @nytimes #GiBillJustice https://t.co/pgF0uY4pXy

@GiBillRights rep @wochinko “no student should be obligated to go through an internal grievance process with their school if there’s been a problem.” Trust has been lost

[Veterans Education Success @GIBillRights]

Thank you @RepSusanDavis for meeting with student veterans about the #GiBill and how to stop predatory practices of for-profit schools.

[Suzanne Bonamici @RepBonamici]

These #studentveterans were able to pursue higher education w/ #GIBill. Thanks @PortlandCC Rock Creek and @GiBillRights for supporting them.

The VA originally sought to issue a blanket waiver to all employees but abandoned that proposal after drawing criticism from veterans groups

[StudentVetRelief @VSLRF]

The @DeptVetAffairs has the power to issue waivers from the requirement.

[StudentVetRelief @VSLRF]

A fed statute prohibits VA employees from receiving financial benefits from for-profit colleges that receive funding from #GIBill benefits

[StudentVetRelief @VSLRF]

@DeptVetAffairs Last week @DeptVetAffairs week backed down from its initial plan to broadly exempt all agency employees from the law.

[StudentVetRelief @VSLRF]

The Trump admin is working on a new approach for how the @DeptVetAffairs enforces a federal ethics law concerning for-profit colleges.

[Veterans Education Success @GIBillRights]

Enormous #gratitude to @SenBlumenthal for true leadership for defrauded student veterans. A former #attorneygeneral, he gets #GIBillJustice
