text: The reason seems to be included in the article: "Veterans’ groups see the House plan as setting dangerous precedent because it takes money from core VA benefits to pay for private-sector care. The plan would trim pensions for some veterans and collect fees for housing loans guaranteed by the VA." However, I'm glad it is working for you, but there may be more concerns from other vets. Hope something good comes of this because our vets should not have to worry about their health care. And so far it doesn't look like Democrats or Republicans are doing what needs to be done.
