GI Internship Program Act

This bill establishes a VA-administered internship program for veterans eligible for Chapter 33 education benefits, matching them with civilian employers for 180- to 360-day internships. Veterans receive a stipend equal to their education benefit during the internship, while employers must meet criteria like tax compliance, non-government status, and committing to hire participants post-internship (capping interns at 10% of their workforce). The program prioritizes manufacturing employers, small businesses, and requires outreach to rural and tribal communities. Annual reports to Congress will track outcomes like job placement rates and earnings impacts.
