The bill will enhance VA\u2019s home loan program by streamlining the home buying process for veterans and their families.\n\n\u201cVA home loans have given millions of veterans and their families the opportunity to purchase a home,\u201d said Bost. \u201cYet, on average, veterans wait longer and pay more during the closing process due to VA\u2019s out-of-date appraisal requirements. That\u2019s why I am introducing the Improving Access to the VA Home Loan Act of 2022 today. This bill will make sure that veterans are not unfairly disadvantaged during the home buying process and allow for a modern, digital appraisal process, which will get them into their new home faster.\u201d\n\nTo learn more about H.R. 7735, the Improving Access to the VA Home Loan Act, click here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T02:29:07Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://bost.house.gov/2022/5/bost-leads-effort-to-modernize-va-home-loan-program"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8480437099933624, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
