CECU Statement on Senate Parliamentarian Ruling to Keep the 90/10 Amendment in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021

3/1/2021

 

Arlington, Va. -- CECU President and CEO, Dr. Jason Altmire, had this to say following the decision by the Senate parliamentarian to keep the House 90/10 language in the COVID-19 relief package:

“We continue to oppose this provision, which limits the education options of our brave men and women who have served our country and earned these benefits. It is unconscionable to exploit the COVID-19 relief bill as a vehicle to deny veterans and active-duty service members the right to use their earned benefits on the career school of their choice.”
