Today, after this legislation passed through the U.S. House of Representatives, Congressman Cole released the following statement: “Generation after generation, America continually stands as a beacon of freedom because of those who serve. In return, we owe those heroes a simple promise: they’ll be taken care of when they return home,” said Congressman Cole. “Yet, the Biden-Harris Administration’s reckless mismanagement of the VA’s budget has threatened the resources relied on by former service members and marked one of the largest financial discrepancies in recent history. This incompetence will not be tolerated, as our veterans should never be without the benefits they have earned. I am proud to have released and voted for this legislation with my colleagues to ensure veteran benefits remain secure and enact much needed oversight to guarantee full accountability and transparency.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T21:43:57Z |
