Veterans Recruitment Authority Act of 1989

Summary

Provides for veterans' readjustment appointments in the Federal Government at the GS-11 level. Includes as veterans eligible for such appointments (currently, only Vietnam veterans are eligible) veterans who have more than 14 years of education and who are entitled to disability compensation or whose discharge or release from active duty was for a disability incurred or aggravated in the line of duty. Grants such veterans preference over other eligible veterans for such appointments. Includes as other eligible veterans those veterans whose last discharge or release from active duty occurred within the four-year period immediately preceding an appointment under such provisions. States that the "last discharge or release" from active duty shall not include a discharge or release of less than 90 days of continuous service except for a service-connected disability, for a pre-existing medical condition which the Secretary of Veterans Affairs determines is not service-connected, or for hardship.
