It would save $33bn in 2024, according to the CBO, and would save $253bn over 10 years. So, basically, nothing.

But hidden down deep in the proposal is the real cost savings: “some veterans may choose to forgo disability payments because they would have to submit an income statement to VA when applying for benefits; if some veterans did so, outlays would decrease by more than CBO estimates. Because no veterans are currently required to submit an income statement to receive disability compensation and because of the unique properties of the program, there is no strong basis for determining how many veterans would opt out of receiving those payments.”

In other words, we are going to make it a huge pain in the ass for veterans to get these payments to begin with, so they will “opt” out of receiving them.

I know a veteran with a net worth of $10M plus who fought scorched earth for 20 years to get back the extra $150 a month for a broken ankle from Vietnam. It’s about the principle to them

Republicans actually wanted to put the whole idea of disability benefits on the table to be voted on for renewal every budgetary term. Which is in all probability worse.

EDIT: How to lie to voters isn't something that either team has captured the market on.
