“Constructing the barracks, bases, and training facilities that our military needs is crucial to our country’s military readiness. Properly funding the Department of Veterans Affairs is how we deliver on the promise of medical care and other benefits that our Veterans have earned through service to our nation. The Related Agencies, including the American Battle Monuments Commission and Arlington Cemetery, demonstrate how we honor the sacrifices of those who served.”
“This bill invests in the programs that improve our military readiness and honor the Veterans who have given so much through their service to our nation.”
"The strength of the bills that we have considered and the quality, the tenor, of the debate was outstanding, it reminds us all and it should remind us all that this is the best committee in the House of Representatives and, in fact, our work is at the center of the government and it doesn’t go forward without us."
The House Appropriations Committee today approved the fiscal year 2022 Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies bill on a 33-24 vote.
"By providing an overall discretionary increase of $11.4 billion above 2021, this bill supports our veterans, rebuilds infrastructure that serves military families, and protects our national security with important global investments."
