To authorize the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to enter into a lease for a Vet Center in Mankato, Minnesota.

This bill authorizes the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to lease space for a Vet Center in Mankato, Minnesota, using up to $1.4 million over fiscal years 2024-2025. It directly affects veterans in Mankato who would gain access to VA mental health and support services at the new location. The key provision allows the VA Secretary to enter a lease agreement for the facility, subject to available funding. The bill does not change existing benefits or create new programs - only funds the physical space for an existing service model.
