What this bill would do

This bill, known as the ``Compensation Fund Recrediting Act'', aims to amend the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The primary purpose is to wind down the Filipino Veterans Equity Compensation Fund. Under this proposal, the fund's effectiveness will cease on January 1, 2027. Any money remaining in the compensation fund at that time will be deposited into the general fund of the Treasury.
