Three Department of Veterans Affairs accounts get additional amounts
What the document says“$6,000,000,000 for ``Department of Veterans Affairs--Cost of War Toxic Exposure Fund'', to remain available until expended.”
Section 11110 adds $30,242,064,000 for Compensation and Pensions, $4,864,566,000 for Readjustment Benefits, and $6,000,000,000 for the Cost of War Toxic Exposure Fund, each to remain available until expended.
What the document actually says“$6,000,000,000 for ``Department of Veterans Affairs--Cost of War Toxic Exposure Fund'', to remain available until expended.”
There is $6,000,000,000 for one fund. The money does not run out at year end.
The fund pays veterans made sick by burn pits and other harms. Claims come in over many years. So the money has no end date.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
