Congressional Republicans again Trump’s choice to chop off this lifeline for veterans.

In a joint assertion Rep. Mike Bost of Illinois, chair of the Home Committee on Veterans Affairs, together with Rep. Derrick Van Orden of Wisconsin), chair of the Subcommittee on Financial Alternative, mentioned, “We—along with many of our colleagues—had serious concerns about the impact VASP would have on not only the future of VA’s home loan program, but the mortgage lending business as a whole. Today, the Trump administration rightfully put an end to VA’s VASP program.”

This system’s closure is the newest in a sequence of assaults on veterans from the Trump administration. Underneath the auspices of Elon Musk’s Division of Authorities Effectivity, the VA has minimize employees—seemingly including to attend occasions for veterans searching for care whereas additionally complicating efforts in coping with day-to-day care points.
