House passes Take Care of America's Veterans Act by voice vote after Democrats fail to request a recorded vote
The House passed the Take Care of America's Veterans Act by voice vote on November 11, 2026, after Democrats did not request a roll-call vote. Democrats accused Republicans of trickery and dirty pool, citing a provision that cuts some future disability claims to fund expanded benefits. Republicans said Democrats simply failed to secure a recorded vote. The bill now heads to the Senate.
