and they take it away elsewhere.
I was showing your cite had nothing to do with what you said it did and in fact was just the opposite. It seems you accept that now that I point it out to you.
Now your current cite here:
quote:
Highlights:
The Military Construction and Veterans Affairs and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2016 provides FY2016 appropriations to the Department of Defense (DOD) for military construction, military family housing, the U.S. share of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Security Investment Program, and base closures and realignments.
The bill also provides appropriations to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for veterans benefit and health care programs, Departmental Administration, and the National Cemetery Administration.
Related agencies and programs funded in the bill include the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims; the Armed Forces Retirement Home; and the Cemeterial Expenses of the Army, including Arlington National Cemetery.
The bill increases overall FY2016 Military Construction and Veterans Affairs funding above FY2015 levels and includes increases for both DOD and the VA.
Within the DOD budget, the bill includes increases for the Military Construction and the Family Housing accounts compared to FY2015 levels.
The VA budget includes increases for the Veterans Benefits Administration, the Veterans Health Administration, the National Cemetery Administration, and Departmental Administration compared to FY2015 levels.
The bill includes a provision prohibiting the VA from interfering with or denying services to veterans participating in state-approved medicinal marijuana programs.
The bill also prohibits the Administration from renovating, expanding, or constructing facilities in the United States to house individuals held in the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay.
apparently the same thing. Increase for veterens. So you're again spewing.
Yet, perhaps these are what you are referencing as cuts:quote:
(Sec. 104) Prohibits funds made available in this title from being used to begin construction of new bases in the United States without a specific appropriation.
A fiduciary reasonable thing for elected officials to do. Is this what you're calling a cut?
Or perhaps these are the cuts you're referring to?
allowed to compete for the procurement.
(Sec. 109) Prohibits funds made available to DOD for military construction or family housing during the current fiscal year from being used to pay real property taxes in any foreign nation.
(Sec. 110) Prohibits funds made available in this title from being used to initiate a new installation overseas without notifying Congress in advance.
(Sec. 111) Prohibits funds made available in this title from being used for architect and engineer contracts estimated to exceed $500,000 for projects in Japan, NATO member countries, or countries bordering the Arabian Gulf unless the contracts are awarded to U.S. firms or joint ventures with U.S. firms.
