What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to give Congress budget updates every three months, including information about any funding shortfalls and plans to address them. It also stops the VA from giving special bonus payments, called critical skill incentives, to high-ranking employees who work at the VA's central office, though exceptions can be made on a case-by-case basis with approval from certain VA leaders. Senior employees who mainly work at the central office but also work at other VA locations are also exempt from the bonus ban. The VA must also send Congress a yearly report on which senior employees received these bonuses.
