D. Amending USC Title 38 to allow additional education benefits to all post 9/11 veterans who would have otherwise been qualified for educational benefits had their benefits not previously been exhausted.

"Many Guard and Reserve servicemembers and veterans activated after Sept. 11, 2001 are eligible for the Post-9/11 GI Bill. If you are a Guard or Reserve member or veteran who served at least 90 consecutive days on active duty in the Armed Forces since Sept. 11, 2001, you're eligible. What Active Duty Time Counts - The following active duty qualifies for Post-9/11 GI Bill eligibility:

All Title 10 active duty supporting named contingency operations
Title 32 service for the purpose of organizing, administering, recruiting, instructing, or training the National Guard
Title 32 service under section 502(f) for the purpose of responding to a national emergency
All voluntary active duty, with the exception of active duty for medical care and medical evaluation
Title 10 service under 502(f): Title 10 service under 12301(h) for the purpose of receiving service-related medical care
A reservist who receives a Purple Heart for service occurring on or after September 11, 2001.
Service under 12304, 12304a, and 12304b orders, mobilization to provide assistance in response to a major disaster or emergency or for preplanned missions in support of combatant commands
Individuals ordered to active duty under section 12301(h) of title 10, USC to receive authorized medical care, to be medically evaluated for disability or other purposes, or to complete a required Department of Defense healthcare study.

The new bill goes well beyond helping to pay for tuition; many veterans who served after Sept. 11, 2001, will get full tuition and fees paid directly to their school, a monthly housing stipend, and up to $1,000 a year stipend for books and supplies."
