Virginia fixes tuition program for veteran’s families

Virginia lawmakers gave final approval last Thursday to legislation that will repeal new restrictions on a tuition waiver program for military families. The House of Delegates and state Senate each voted unanimously to fully restore the Virginia Military Survivors and Dependents Education Program, which offers free college tuition at state schools for families of military veterans who were killed or seriously disabled while on active duty. Governor Glenn Youngkin returned to Richmond on Thursday from the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee to sign that legislation into law.
