Amends section 1715 to replace its text with a prohibition on smoking on the premises of any Veterans Health Administration facility and to add definitions of 'smoke' and 'facility of the Veterans Health Administration'.
Repeals section 526 of the Veterans Health Care Act of 1992 (Public Law 102–585).
This bill would ban smoking anywhere on the grounds of any Veterans Health Administration (VA) health facility. It defines smoking to include cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and electronic nicotine devices like e‑cigarettes or vapes, not just traditional tobacco products. The change would be written into federal veterans’ health law to make VA campuses smoke‑free across the board.
