HR 8120, known as the Veterans Benefits Information Protection Act, is a federal bill introduced in the 119th Congress to strengthen privacy protections for veterans' health information. The bill addresses the need to safeguard sensitive medical records and personal data belonging to those who have served our country.
As of March 26, 2026, the bill has been referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce for review and consideration. This committee examines how veterans' information should be protected from unauthorized access and misuse.
Protecting veterans' health information is vital for maintaining trust in the systems that serve those who have made significant sacrifices. When veterans know their medical records are secure, they can seek the care they need without worry. This bill represents our community's commitment to honoring the privacy and dignity of veterans.
The next step is for the House Committee on Energy and Commerce to review the bill's details and determine whether to recommend it for a full House vote. Community members and veterans' advocates can track the bill's progress through Congress and share their support with elected representatives.
