GREAT NEWS for our families on the #COVIDvaccine Fresh from congress, a new bill has passed that guarantees vaccines to ALL #Veterans, #StudentVeterans, #VeteranSpouses, and #Caregivers. Specifically, the bill states that all veterans, veteran spouses, caregivers, and Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs (CHAMPVA) recipients to the extent that such vaccines are available will be eligible to receive their vaccine from their local VA. ...President Biden is expected to sign the unopposed bill into law this week!!! Golden Gate University School of Law, please share with all current Student Veterans, Staff, and Veteran Alumni. More on this topic here: https://www.militarytimes.com//all-veterans-their-spouse/
