A bipartisan bill sponsored by Reps. Chris Pappas, D-N.H., and Don Bacon, R-Neb., aims to curb predatory collection practices by companies that charge disabled veterans for help with VA benefits claims. The legislation would prevent companies from using auto-dialers to call federal agencies, targeting companies like Trajector Medical that use automated technology to monitor veterans' VA benefit payments and automatically bill them when their ratings increase. The bill was prompted by a 2025 NPR investigation revealing Trajector's CallBot program placed tens of thousands of monthly calls to a VA hotline meant for veterans.
