Veterans Affairs discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Veterans Affairs's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Provides grants to states, territories, and tribal organizations to establish, expand, and improve Veterans cemeteries, complementing VA's national cemetery system in areas where a new national cemetery is not feasible.
Extracted from Veterans Affairs Programs, p. 78. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
