Honor Their Service Act

The Honor Their Service Act directs the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide grants to eligible organizations that offer immigration legal assistance to noncitizen veterans. These funds are intended to help veterans facing deportation, seeking citizenship, or needing discharge upgrades by covering legal services in removal proceedings, naturalization applications, and reentry efforts. To ensure broad access, the bill requires the VA to establish clear eligibility criteria, consult with relevant service groups, and prioritize funding for entities that can deliver services virtually or in remote areas. The legislation authorizes $20 million in funding for fiscal years 2027 through 2030 and mandates biennial reports to Congress detailing the number of assisted veterans and the effectiveness of the programs.
