“This bill also prevents the Rogers STEM scholarship from counting toward the 48-month limit a veteran can receive GI benefits. I have seen veterans in my district in central and eastern Kentucky, especially at Eastern Kentucky University, take advantage of this important scholarship. Mr. Speaker, I am proud of my vote for this package that delivers for our Nation's veterans. I thank, again, my colleagues for working in a bipartisan way to shepherd this very important package of veteran advocacy legislation to fruition. Once again, I thank my good friend for his distinguished service in this body, Dr. Phil Roe. Thank you, sir. It has been an honor serving with you on this subcommittee especially.”
