Two congressmen are sponsoring legislation to give students additional GI Bill benefits if they are working toward degrees in the science, technology, engineering and math fields.
Students who use the Post-9/11 GI Bill would receive an extra nine months of benefits if they pursue a degree in one of the STEM fields, according to congressional documents and a news release.
Reps. David McKinley, R-W.Va., and Dina Titus, D-Nev., introduced the legislation Wednesday.
