FTC Overreaches on Noncompete Contracts

NCLA and CVAF Ask Dept. of Veterans Affairs to Amend Regulation Denying Benefits to Disabled Vets

NCLA and Concerned Veterans for America Foundation have filed a petition asking the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to amend its controversial regulation regarding the payment of benefits to veterans who have been deemed eligible for disability benefits but who later return temporarily to active duty. The current regulation denies many disabled veterans the benefits to which federal law entitles them.
