Veterans would get VA updates through texts, chats, and other online messages, not just mail.
This bill would let the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) reach out to new veterans using text messages, online chats, and other digital tools. Currently, the VA's Solid Start program mainly uses mail. This change would make it simpler for service members leaving the military to get important information about their VA benefits and help.
Today, the Department of Veterans Affairs' Solid Start program mainly reaches out to new veterans using special letters sent by mail. If this bill becomes law, the program would expand its communication methods. These would include text messaging, online chats, and other digital messages, along with mailings.
