Vet groups urge rejection of plan to fix VA budget gap
Eight major veterans organizations urged Congress to provide emergency funding for the Department of Veterans Affairs without cutting other VA programs as the House moves to address a budget shortfall threatening care for thousands. They criticized a House plan to shift 2 billion from other VA programs to fund Choice while pensions for some veterans would be trimmed and housing loan fees kept. The groups urged lawmakers to reject the bill and seek a Senate compromise to protect veterans health care.

Sanctions Bill Focuses on North Korea Iran and Russia
A bipartisan push tightens sanctions on North Korea Iran and Russia while addressing energy sector concerns raised by oil and gas firms. The package imposes penalties on Iran’s ballistic missile program and Revolutionary Guards, bars North Korean ships and forced labor goods, and includes a Congress review mechanism similar to 2015 Iran sanctions oversight. The measure faces procedural delays and partisan blame despite broad support.
