House approves 116 million for McGuire Veterans Hospital
The House passed a 116 million appropriation for a new Richmond McGuire Veterans Hospital as part of an 268 million VA funding package for eight projects. The Senate now considers the measure. Construction would start in 1977 and finish by late 1980, replacing the 700 bed McGuire campus with a 111.4 million hospital and a 4.5 million nursing home on the site. President Ford had endorsed the VA funding in the HUD independent agencies bill.
