This program also provides opportunities for disabled veterans to participate in events such as wheelchair games, golf clinics, and many other sporting events that promote a healthy lifestyle. This Congress, my subcommittee, has championed key legislation regarding VA's adaptive programs. HR 522, the deliver for Veterans act, championed by my friend and great from the great territory of Guam, Representative Moylan, would cover the shipping cost of delivery, excuse me, of the delivery of an adaptive automobile. This legislation passed the House in April.
