Improving Veterans Access to Congressional Services Act of 2025

This bill would let Members of Congress meet with their constituents at local VA facilities. The VA and the General Services Administration would pick which rooms can be used. The VA must set clear rules within 90 days after the bill becomes law. Those rules must make sure the space is open during normal business hours, easy to find, and rented at a rate similar to other federal office space in the area. Members may advertise that they are using the space, and they would pay the rent from their official office funds.

Politics is kept out of these visits. No campaign activity is allowed, no pushing for or against laws or policies, and no recording patients or others without consent. No photos or videos can be used for campaign materials. Also, Members couldn’t use VA facilities for these meetings during the 60 days before a federal election in that area. The VA can’t unreasonably say no if there’s unused space and normal VA work won’t be disrupted.

Key points:

• Who is affected: Veterans and other constituents, VA facilities, and Members of Congress.
• What changes: Members can hold constituent meetings at VA sites under set rules; political activity and certain recordings are banned; rent must be similar to standard federal rates; Members may advertise their use of the space.
• When: VA must issue the rules within 90 days after enactment; no use in the 60 days before a federal election in that area.
