A bill that will provide every veteran with access to a card that will verify their service is headed to President Obama’s desk.
The Veteran’s ID Card Act, co-sponsored by Congressman Dan Benishek, passed out of the House without opposition.

With the passage of this bill, the Veteran’s ID Card will serve as a convenient substitute.
