Retired Pay Restoration Act
Approximately 33 percent of retired veterans in Colorado lose over $75 million in benefits each year as a result of the unfair "Disabled Veterans Tax." This is unacceptable, and I have co-sponsored the bipartisan Retired Pay Restoration Act (S. 546) to allow the receipt of both military retired pay and veterans' disability compensation with respect to any service-connected disability. This bill would effectively end this tax and restore full benefits to thousands of veterans in Colorado. I will continue to work with members of both parties and the President until this tax is eliminated.
If you have further questions about this or any other issue, please contact me with your concerns.
