House Veterans’ Affairs Committee Statement
“This administration will tout a 12% increase in the VA budget but ignores a much worse reality-- this budget will lead to less food on the plates of struggling veteran families, no new vouchers for homeless veterans, and millions of veterans cut off from key social programs targeted by the President.
“Despite significant investments in mental health care for veterans-- a top priority for the President, this Committee and VA-- these funds direct resources outside VA into grant programs and the PREVENTS Task Force instead of being used to explicitly support veterans in crisis at VA.
