President Bush Signed Sole Survivor Benefits Law
President Bush recently signed the Hubbard Act, surrounded by members of the California family whose multiple sacrifices inspired the military pay-and-benefits law. The Hubbard Act” was named after Clovis Army Specialist, Jason Hubbard, who lost both of his brothers in the war in Iraq.
Under the U.S. military “sole survivor” policy, the last remaining sibling in a war zone can ask to return home, following the death of a brother or sister. The Hubbard Act also restores recruitment bonuses and various benefits to sole survivors that are discharged early from the military. Under this new law, sole survivors will also retain eligibility rights for the same services that honorably discharged men and women have access to.
