The Veterans' Transition to Trucking Act of 2025 seeks to broaden the scope of educational assistance for veterans. It specifically grants authority to the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to approve multi-State apprenticeship programs. These programs must be provided by commercial truck driving schools , making them eligible for veterans' educational benefits. This legislative change allows the Secretary to function as a State approving agency for these particular multi-State programs, thereby facilitating veterans' access to training for careers in commercial trucking.
