The Trump Administration Is Canceling California's GI Bill Approval Power, But The State Is Fighting

There's a knock-down, drag-out brawl being waged right now in the world of college financing. On the surface, it's about the future of veterans' education and which schools are allowed to accept valuable GI Bill payments. On a deeper level, this is a fight for the survival and prosperity of the troubled for-profit college industry.
It's a complicated situation, so buckle up.
WHO ARE THE PLAYERS?
California has an office that works to protect military veterans from predatory for-profit colleges that leave students with junk diplomas and a mountain of debt. It's called the California State Approving Agency for Veterans Education, or CSAAVE, part of the California Department of Veterans Affairs — aka CalVet.
