House Committee on Veterans Affairs
The Committee on Veterans' Affairs is the authorizing
Committee for the Department of Veterans Affairs. The Committee recommends
legislation expanding, curtailing, or fine-tuning existing laws relating
to veterans' benefits. The Committee also has oversight responsibility,
which means monitoring and evaluating the operations of the DVA. If the
Committee finds the that DVA is not administering laws as Congress intended,
then it is "corrected" through the a hearing process and legislation.
We are the voice of Congress in dealings with the DVA.
