The Vulnerable Veterans Housing Reform Act of 2013 (H.R. 1742) is a bill that would change the way the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) calculates a veterans' income to exclude some aid that some veterans receive from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Excluding this aid from the VA would reduce the calculated income of these veterans, likely making them eligible for additional aid from HUD that they might not have received if their assistance from the VA was included. The bill would also change how utility allowances are calculated for HUD-assisted housing by basing "utility allowances on the unit the size permitted by a local public housing agency, even if the family has rented a larger unit at its own additional cost."

dbo:abstract	The Vulnerable Veterans Housing Reform Act of 2013 (H.R. 1742) is a bill that would change the way the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) calculates a veterans' income to exclude some aid that some veterans receive from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Excluding this aid from the VA would reduce the calculated income of these veterans, likely making them eligible for additional aid from HUD that they might not have received if their assistance from the VA was included. The bill would also change how utility allowances are calculated for HUD-assisted housing by basing "utility allowances on the unit the size permitted by a local public housing agency, even if the family has rented a larger unit at its own additional cost." This change would offset the cost to the federal government of the VA aid exemption in determining a veterans income. The bill was introduced into the United States House of Representatives during the 113th United States Congress. (en)
