HR-4861 : Still Just a Bill

Counting Overlooked Base Impact Aid Act or the COBIA Act

This bill requires the commanders of each military installation to annually submit written certification to their respective military departments verifying whether they have confirmed the information contained in all Impact Aid source check forms received from local educational agencies (LEAs) as of the date of such certification. Such forms are submitted by LEAs to confirm the number and identity of children eligible to be counted for purposes of the federal Impact Aid program.
