Summary
The VA Contracting and Procurement Act amends federal law to impose a $50 million threshold on Department of Veterans Affairs contracts and agreements, requiring specific congressional authorization for any single contract exceeding that amount. The bill applies this limitation across multiple VA contracting authorities, including personal services contracts, community care agreements, healthcare facility administration, educational benefits administration, and veteran-owned small business contracting. The threshold does not apply during declared wars, War Powers Resolution cases, national emergencies, major disasters affecting VA facilities, or public health emergencies. For educational benefits agreements, the bill establishes an alternative 30-legislative-day notification and congressional disapproval process.
