Virginia Lawmakers Unite to Restore Military Tuition Program

In a significant move, the Virginia General Assembly has unanimously voted to repeal recent restrictions on a widely appreciated tuition waiver program for military families.

This decision comes after the program faced cuts that sparked a considerable political controversy. The program, which benefits military families by offering tuition waivers, will now receive $65 million annually for the next two years.

This legislative action reflects a strong bipartisan commitment to supporting military families in Virginia.
