Derrick Van Orden: “As a Chairman of the House Economic Opportunity…”

“This legislation establishes a permanent partial claims program within the VA Home Loan program, bringing VA in line with all of the other federal agencies that lend monies for homes. As a Chairman of the House Economic Opportunity Subcommittee, I'm responsible for the two most successful programs in the history of the United States government has ever administered, the GI Home Loan Program and the GI VA Home Loan Guarantee. And it is my responsibility to make sure that every active duty service member, every veteran, and every American that chooses to join the military in the future has the opportunity to use this program to borrow money to.” (00:23–00:40)
