Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

This bill requires the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to use commercial building codes and standards (such as those from the National Fire Protection Association or International Code Council) instead of or in addition to federal codes when constructing or altering VA facilities, provided they do not conflict with statutory requirements. The bill mandates at least three pilot projects per year from 2027 through 2031 using commercial codes, and requires the VA to report annually to Congress on the use of this authority and the outcomes of pilot projects.
