S 2268 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Ensuring Interagency Cooperation to Support Veterans Act of 2023

This bill amends the Department of Veterans Affairs-Department of Defense Joint Executive Committee to improve coordination for veterans transitioning from military to civilian life. It adds the Assistant Secretary of Labor for Veterans' Employment and other designated officials from the Department of Labor and other agencies to the committee, expands its name to the "Transition Executive Committee," and broadens its authority to develop joint initiatives. The committee's co-chairs are now the Deputy Secretary of Veterans Affairs and the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness. These changes aim to streamline collaboration between VA, DoD, and other agencies to better support veterans' transition needs. The bill directly affects VA, DoD, and the Department of Labor by restructuring their existing interagency coordination mechanism.
