This proposal, called the Veterans First Act of 2025, would shift $2 billion in unused foreign aid funds to the Department of Veterans Affairs. The money would fund grants to states to build new state-run veterans’ nursing and residential (domiciliary) homes, and to remodel or upgrade existing state veterans’ hospitals and homes. The funds would stay available until they are spent.

Key points:

Who is affected: Veterans who rely on state-run homes for care, and states that operate these facilities.
What changes: $2 billion is taken back from the U.S. Agency for International Development and given to the VA for state grants to build, expand, or improve veterans’ homes.
When: Funds would remain available until used.
