The Department of Veterans Affairs has a budget shortfall. A big one. Officials say the department is on track to spend 3 billion dollars more than Congress allocated for this year. And there’s another projected shortfall of 12-billion dollars next year.

Details now from Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu.
