Veterans Affairs Advisory Committee Oversight Act of 2025

This bill would create four new advisory committees in the Department of Veterans Affairs: one on veterans' health care, one on economic opportunity and transition to civilian life, one on special veteran populations, and one on former prisoners of war, disability compensation, and memorial affairs. Members would be appointed by the Secretary for two-year terms, serve without pay except for travel expenses, meet on a set schedule, and submit yearly reports that are passed on to Congress. Each new committee would end by September 30, 2028, unless renewed. The bill would also end 16 existing VA advisory committees on September 30, 2026, repeal one inactive committee, and require the Secretary to report to Congress within 30 days on inactive or lapsed advisory committees.
