At the end of title III, add the following:

MEDICAL FACILITIES OF THE DEPARTMENT OF
VETERANS AFFAIRS IN ALL STATES AND TERRITORIES
OF THE UNITED STATES.
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate
may revise the allocations of a committee or committees,
aggregates, and other appropriate levels in this resolution,
and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, for one or
more bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between
the Houses, motions, or conference reports relating to
ensuring that veterans in all States and territories of the

the Department allocates facility modernization funding, by
the amounts provided in such legislation for those purposes,
provided that such legislation would not increase the deficit
over the period of the total of fiscal years 2022 through
