Lets North Carolina get federal land at Fort Bragg to build a new home for veterans.

This bill would let the State of North Carolina receive about 20 acres of federal land at Fort Bragg. This land would be used to build a new State home for veterans. North Carolina would cover the costs to transfer the land, but not the land itself.

What Would Change

Today, about 20 acres of federal land at Fort Bragg is managed by the Army. If this bill becomes law, the Army Secretary could transfer this land to North Carolina without charging for the land itself. North Carolina would then build a State home for veterans on this property, covering all costs related to the transfer process.
