Veterans Affairs Department plans town meeting in Pueblo
The Denver regional office of the Veterans Affairs Department is holding a town hall meeting in Pueblo to hear from veterans, their family members and the public.
The meeting will be Tuesday evening at Colorado State University-Pueblo. It will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., in the Library and Academic Resource Center, rooms 108 and 109.
The session comes as the VA struggles to complete its new Denver hospital, which has suffered huge cost overruns and delays.
Colorado’s congressional delegation is seeking more money to complete the 184-bed hospital being built in suburban Aurora. It will include a traumatic brain-injury center, nursing care and other clinics.
It will replace an old facility in Denver.
