Nursing Home For Veterans
KENTUCKY...
A proposal to build a new nursing home for veterans in Kentucky has cleared its first hurdle. U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and U.S. Rep. Brett Guthrie announced Friday a provision has been added to both the House and the Senate version of the Defense Authorization bill. The measure would help Kentucky secure land near Fort Knox to build the facility. McConnell says the Senate Armed Services Committee approved the bill Thursday. A House committee passed its version of the bill on May 20. The bill still has to be considered by the full Senate and House.
