The Veterans Affairs Department could get enough money to finish its budget-busting medical center outside Denver if Congress passes a measure that would let the VA transfer $625 million from other accounts in its own budget,according to an article on the Washington Times website.
The money would come with a requirement that the House and Senate appropriations committees approve the details. Congress would also have to pass separate legislation raising the spending cap on the project
The measure faces obstacles in Congress including an attempt by conservative Republicans to deny funding to Planned Parenthood.
Construction on the hospital would likely come to a halt at the end of the month unless Congress acts.
