Bill overview
The Preserving Lawful Utilization of Services for Veterans Act of 2025 (PLUS for Veterans Act) aims to clarify rules regarding fees charged by agents and attorneys assisting veterans with benefits claims at the Department of Veterans Affairs. Specifically, it allows for fee agreements between claimants and representatives, establishes a small assessment for individuals seeking recognition, and restores penalties for unauthorized fees charged to veterans. The bill also includes provisions for reporting on suspensions and denials of recognition to Congress, and preempts state laws that conflict with VA regulations regarding these fees.
