H.R. 3304 would make changes to automobile grant and home loan programs administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The costs of both programs are paid from mandatory appropriations. Enacting the bill would decrease net direct spending by $43 million over the 2022-2032 period, CBO estimates.
VA provides grants of up to $22,356 (in 2022) to purchase automobiles for veterans who have specified service-connected disabilities that usually impair their mobility. Veterans are typically entitled to a single grant and may also receive grants to adapt vehicles for their disabilities so that they are able to use them.
