Makes the Department of Veterans Affairs’ pilot program for accepting donated facilities and related improvements permanent. It moves this authority into title 38 of the U.S. Code as a new section and updates the wording for clarity.
The change takes effect on December 16, 2026. It does not appropriate new funds or change taxes; it simply gives VA ongoing authority to accept in‑kind capital donations to improve VA facilities, which can help deliver projects faster and at lower cost to taxpayers.
On motion to suspend the rules and pass the bill, as amended Agreed to by voice vote. (text: CR H2121-2122)
