A resolution expressing support for and celebrating the 80th anniversary of the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944.
SRES 818 is a Senate resolution celebrating the 80th anniversary of the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act of 1944 (commonly known as the GI Bill). The resolution honors the historical impact of the GI Bill, which provided World War II veterans with educational benefits, home loans, and healthcare, leading to expanded higher education access and economic growth. It does not create new legal requirements or benefits but symbolically recognizes this milestone and encourages public reflection on the Act’s role in shaping the U.S. middle class.
