Lawmakers demand Pentagon drops GI Bill transfer limits

This is a matter of lawmakers jumping onto a bandwagon. Everyone who will be affected has had 10 years to transfer their GI Bill by the time this policy goes into effect. Everyone who will be affected in the future, will have had a time frame of 10 years to transfer their GI Bill, from their six-year Mark until their 16 year mark.
Nothing is being revoked from the troops, and transferring your GI Bill is not a right, it's not even an earned benefit of military service.
Service member dependents do not have anymore right to a GI Bill then they do to a service members retirement.
On the back side, people and lawmakers have not seen the issues that arrives from service members who have more than 16 years in and commit to an additional 4 years, but then attempt to retire before meeting their obligation. It can cause undue financial burden to the service member when they have to revoke the transfer and repay used benefits.

Pentagon officials said the move is being made “to more closely align the transferability benefit with its purpose as a recruiting and retention incentive.” There are no words describing a force that is dedicated to the nation and experienced numerous deployments. What the DoD is doing is extremely disloyal to the troops who stayed on course.
