Veterans could use VA-backed loans to buy shares that give them a home in a housing cooperative. The option would become permanent, but borrowers would pay the regular VA funding fee plus another 3.25% of the loan amount.

Fair Access to Co-ops for Veterans Act of 2025 is a House bill committee Action. The latest recorded action: Forwarded by Subcommittee to Full Committee by Voice Vote.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects veterans who want to buy homes in housing cooperatives. It also affects lenders that may offer the loans and co-op boards whose projects must meet VA standards. Real estate agents would receive information from the VA about how the program works.
Why this matters: Veterans may have fewer VA-backed buying options in places where co-ops are common. This bill could open more of those homes to VA financing and give lenders clearer rules. However, the extra 3.25% fee could raise a veteran’s cost by a large amount. Actual access would depend on the VA’s final rules and whether lenders choose to offer the loans.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
