S. 4047, Veterans’ COLA Act of 2024
The VFW supports this legislation to provide a cost-of-living increase for wartime disability compensation, additional compensation for dependents, clothing allowances, and DIC for surviving spouses and children. These benefits would receive the same percentage increase as is granted for Social Security benefits. The VFW would like to see cost-of-living increases for these benefits every year so that veterans, dependents, and survivors are able to maintain financial stability.
