Yes this is from The Hill and yes, it's a very real thing. Recently I learned how much this "widow tax" effects widows/widowers. When a loved one joins the military they are told "we will take care of your family". Now we are having to fight for what our loved ones gave their lives for. This is one of the things that tick me off to no end. For the record the SBP, DIC difference has been going on long before Trump. If you want something to complain about to your elected officials, this is the perfect thing to complain about.
