Page 183 - $20mm for opioid veteran treatment courts program.
Pg 345 - Transfer of funds ($115mm) to DOD Dept of Veterans Affairs Medical Facility Demonstration Fund. Centers listed.
Veterans employment and training. Includes finding for disabled and homeless vets.
Pg 1137 - $95b for compensation and pensions. Wow!!!
Pg 1138 - $11b for collision services. Our vets are finally getting taken care of!
*Compensation

Pg 1141-1142 - $1.9b + $49b for Veterans Health Services. Wow!
Pg 1143 - Even more funding for Health Services including non-department facilities. $419m + $8.3b. Top of the page calls for funds to go to the acquisition of prosthetics for female veterans. ☺️
Pg 1143-144 - Veterans Medical Support and Compliance $7.2b available Oct 2018 to Sept 2019.
Pg 1144-1145 - Veterans Medical Facilities. More winning!!
Pg 1145 - Prosthetic Research $722m (think we're seeing why this bill is so huge!)
Pg 1147-1149 - Veterans Information Technology and Health Records
Pg 1150-1152 - Major Construction Projects
Pg 1153-1154 - Minor Construction Projects plus grants for construction of state extended care facilities.
There is even more but I'm now cross-eyed & really need to get some sleep. Here's the link to the bill. You can search by keyword like I just did. I'm extremely pleased to see all this funding for our amazing & deserving heroes. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡² congress.gov/115/bills
Link didn't copy correctly. Here's the correct one: congress.gov/115/bills/hr16…
Last thing before I pass out, I have no clue how to unroll this, so if someone would be so kind to do it is be very grateful! God Bless our #Veteran and #Patriots ❀️
