Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 4233, the Student Veterans Counseling Centers Eligibility Act from Congressman Murphy. We all know that student veterans may face challenges as they begin this new phase of their lives following military service, and we want them to be able to seek and find support at vet centers. We also encourage VA to continue monitoring the need for increased funding, staffing, and resources for vet centers as a result of demand for these services. I urge all of my colleagues to vote ``yes'' on H.R. 4233, and I reserve the balance of my time.
