This bill would change one section of the U.S. Code (title 38, section 2044(e)) so the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) can permanently receive appropriations to provide financial help for supportive services for very low-income veteran families who live in permanent housing. The bill renames existing subparagraphs (A) through (H) as paragraphs (1) through (8) and adds a new paragraph (9) that says amounts may be appropriated for fiscal year 2027 and each fiscal year after that to carry out those subsections.
If you are a very low-income veteran family in permanent housing, this bill would keep in place the VA's authority to receive appropriations to pay for supportive services (services that help families stay housed and get needed help). The bill does not describe specific benefit amounts, eligibility changes, or new services. It begins the permanent appropriation authority starting in fiscal year 2027.
No publicly available information on estimated federal costs or changes in funding amounts is included in the bill text or provided metadata.
The bill’s sponsors propose making the VA's authority to fund supportive services for very low-income veteran families permanent so that appropriations can be provided starting in fiscal year 2027 and continuing each year thereafter.
