VETRA Act

Key Points

• This bill creates a two-year test program to upgrade how veterans log in to VA websites. It replaces older, less secure login methods with modern security tools to better protect personal information.
• The VA will test these new security measures on up to three major platforms. These could include systems for disability claims, health care enrollment, education benefits, or home loans.
• The main goals are to reduce identity fraud and make sure benefit payments reach the right people. The program aims to make digital services more secure while still being easy for veterans to use.
• The project will cost up to $25 million using money already set aside for VA technology. Government watchdogs will study the results to see if the new system should be used across the entire agency.
