Rep. Barry Moore supports legislation to fully fund health care for veterans 

Washington, D.C. — Today, Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) voted in favor of the 2024 Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill. This legislation honors our veterans by fully funding their health care programs and supports a strong national defense by funding $17 billion in military construction projects. It also includes provisions prohibiting VA funding for abortion, critical race theory, and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.

“This bill is a victory for the 377,000 veterans in my home state of Alabama who rely on care and benefits from the VA after serving our country," said Moore. "House Republicans are focused on caring for these heroes and investing in the future of our servicemembers rather than spending taxpayer dollars on extinguishing innocent lives or propping up woke initiatives that prioritize pronouns over performance."



The 2024 Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations bill:

• Fully funds VA health care programs
• Fully funds VA benefits
• Invests in the pacific theater and new barracks
• Prohibits the closure or realignment of Guantanamo Bay
• Prohibits funding for abortion through the VA
• Prohibits funding for critical race theory initiatives and DEI initiatives
