HR 1741 United States House · 119th Congress

Veteran Appeals Transparency Act of 2025

HR 1741, the Veteran Appeals Transparency Act of 2025, requires the Board of Veterans' Appeals to publish weekly online notices showing which cases are assigned to individual Board members for decision that week. This applies to most cases but excludes those advanced under special procedures or remanded by the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. The notices clarify that assignment does not mean a decision will be issued that week. The bill directly affects veterans navigating appeals by making case assignment timelines publicly visible, aiming to improve transparency in the appeals process.
