Veterans in Campus Safety Act

The Veterans in Campus Safety Act would create a federal grant program for colleges and universities to hire veterans as campus security officers. The Secretary of Education would award competitive grants to institutions, requiring funds to be used solely for hiring veterans in campus security roles, as defined by federal law. The bill also includes a separate provision prohibiting federal funding for centers that provide equity assistance, such as those described in federal regulations. This legislation directly affects higher education institutions and veterans seeking campus security employment.
