Description:Congressional Democrats are pushing forward with plans for a new G.I. Bill to give veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan money to go to college for four years. House Democrats want to pay for it with what theyve dubbed a "patriot tax" on people earning more than $500,000. In the Senate, one Republican who notably isnt on board is John McCain, a Vietnam veteran who says the proposal is too expensive and could encourage service members to leave the military.
