To amend title 38, United States Code, to establish the Veteran Scam Victims Foundation, and for other purposes.

The proposal would create a new foundation to help veterans who have been victims of scams and fraud recover their losses and get support. This foundation would work to identify scams targeting veterans, provide financial assistance to those who have been defrauded, and potentially help prevent future scams through education and awareness programs. Veterans who fall prey to common scams—like fake charities, investment schemes, or romance fraud—would be the primary beneficiaries of this new resource.

Containing Effects of Mineral Extraction Act of 2026

The proposal would add new requirements to contracts and permits for large-scale mining operations that are located close to cities and towns, giving the government more control over how these projects operate in populated areas. This would affect mining companies, local communities, and potentially consumers who rely on minerals, by ensuring that extraction activities near urban areas follow stricter conditions to protect nearby residents.

To amend title 38, United States Code, to require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to submit to Congress a quarterly report on housing loans insured, guaranteed, or under laws administered by the Secretary, and for other purposes.

The Department of Veterans Affairs would be required to provide Congress with detailed quarterly reports on the housing loans it insures and guarantees for veterans, tracking how many loans are being issued and their status. This would give lawmakers better visibility into how the VA's home loan program is operating and help them monitor whether veterans are getting the housing benefits they're entitled to. The bill also includes other unspecified changes to veterans' housing loan policies.
