Doug Collins: “It's interesting to me that staff told Members of Congress that that wasn't relevant or that wasn't relevant.”

VA is working hard to fully implement the many provisions of the Dole Act. We're excited to offer this expanded benefit, which better supports Veterans who choose to spend their final days at home, surrounded by their loved ones.

“I appreciate that, Senator,” concluded Secretary Collins. “It's always good to visit with you, my former colleague in the House.”

We're committed to making that happen in the areas that we can.

“each investment is tied to a concrete improvement Veterans will notice: shorter waits, better coordination, and more consistent access to both VA and community care.”
