STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand Four
A RESOLUTION commending the United States Congress for supporting concurrent receipt of disability and retirement benefits by disabled veterans.
Whereas, the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2004 was passed by the United States House of Representatives on November 7, 2003 and by the United States Senate on November 12, 2003; and
Whereas, included in this important legislation was an agreement on a landmark provision, providing concurrent receipt of military disability and military retirement benefits to the most disabled veterans; and
Whereas, this historic compromise remedies a problem which has existed for 100 years and provides hundreds of thousands of veterans with full disability payments for the first time ever; and
Whereas, this agreement on concurrent receipt represents monumental progress toward ensuring that the men and women who are injured in service to our country receive fair and equitable compensation; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
That the New Hampshire general court commends the members of the United States Congress who invested their time and hard work in reaching this agreement and urges them to continue their support for passage of full concurrent receipt legislation in the future; and
That copies of this senate concurrent resolution be sent by the senate clerk to the President of the United States, the Vice President of the United States, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and all members of the United States Congress.
Approved: April 29, 2004
