Concurrent Receipt of Retired/VA pay for Military Retirees

Created by C.V. on November 25, 2012

Concurrent receipt of retirement pay and disability compensation has been expanded over the past decade, but still does not apply to all military retirees with service-connected disabilities disabilities.

An explanation of the status quo is well-articulated here: http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R40589.pdf

There has been some recent support for this matter in Congress, however, this issue seems to always die in a Congressional Committee. Accordingly, we petition this administration to task Congress with this important matter, and pass legislation benefiting military retirees/veterans who have earned the right to Concurrent Receipt based on their honorable service to their country.
