What this bill would do

The "Autonomy for All Disabled Veterans Act" aims to increase the money the Secretary of Veterans Affairs pays to veterans for home health services involving structural alterations and improvements. It raises specific payment amounts from $6,800 to $10,000 and from $2,000 to $10,000. The bill applies to veterans who apply for these benefits on or after the date the Act is enacted. Additionally, it requires the Secretary to adjust these dollar amounts annually based on the residential home cost of construction index.
