It is the sense of Congress that— veterans who have served our country honorably should not be denied access to Department of Veterans Affairs home loans on the basis of income derived from State-legalized cannabis activities; while the Department of Veterans Affairs has clarified that no statute or regulation specifically prohibits a veteran whose income is derived from State-legalized cannabis activities from obtaining a certificate of eligibility for Department of Veterans Affairs home loan benefits, many veterans continue to be denied access to home loans on the basis of income derived from State-legalized cannabis activities; and the Department of Veterans Affairs should improve communication with eligible lending institutions to reduce confusion among lenders and borrowers on this matter.
