What this amendment would do

SA 2989, submitted by Ms. Baldwin, aims to change section 202 of bill H.R. 3944. This bill deals with appropriations for military construction, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.

The purpose of this amendment is to allow the transfer of funds among specific Department of Veterans Affairs accounts for fiscal year 2026. These accounts include:

  • Medical Services
  • Medical Community Care
  • Medical Support and Compliance
  • Medical Facilities

The amendment specifies that transfers of 1 percent or less of the total amount appropriated to the account can occur if the Secretary of Veterans Affairs notifies the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress regarding the amount and purpose of the transfer.
