Moral Injury Recognition and Restitution Act provides retroactive benefits for veterans with mental health conditions due to military sexual trauma.
The Moral Injury Recognition and Restitution Act amends title 38, United States Code, to provide retroactive payment of benefits for veterans with covered mental health conditions based on military sexual trauma. If the Secretary approves a claim for compensation for such conditions, the effective date of the award will be the day after the veteran's discharge from active military, naval, or air service. The act also includes a new section for retroactive benefits payments in the Department of Veterans Affairs.
The filed bill text is too short for analysis.
