Watch IAVA Executive Director and Founder Paul Rieckhoff’s interview with CNN’s Heidi Collins on CNN Newsroom, as he discusses the delay of payments from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to the colleges and universities attended by student veterans pursuing their education on the new Post-9/11 GI Bill.

Rieckhoff echoed IAVA’s call for the White House and VA to address this problem immediately and ensure that veterans are not forced to choose between footing the bill for their education or dropping out of school.  Click here [4] to read the IAVA’s full statement regarding the delays.
