Subcommittee unanimously backs making VirginiaValues Veterans Network permanent
Summary
HB 354 would codify the Virginia Values Veterans Network into statute to centralize veteran services; the subcommittee voted 9 to 0 to report the bill to the full committee after patron testimony explained the executive initiativeis being converted into permanent code.
Delegate Thomas told the subcommittee that Virginia offers a wide range of services for veterans but that those services were scattered across agencies. HB 354 would codify the Virginia Values Veterans Network so that veterans could more easily find and access state programs in a single portal.
The patron said the network originated as an executive initiative and would become a permanent feature of state code. He asked the subcommittee to report the bill to the full committee.
No members of the public testified in opposition. The committee moved and seconded a report motion and the clerk recorded the bill as reported to the full committee by a vote of 9 to 0.
