    Congress finds that--
            (1) homelessness is a serious problem in the United States;
            (2) veterans, who have served and defended this Nation, are 
        especially at risk for homelessness;
            (3) the Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that more 
        than 250,000 veterans are homeless on any given night;
            (4) an estimated 1 out of every 3 homeless men served in 
        the Armed Forces;
            (5) America's homeless veterans have served bravely in 
        World War II, the Korean War, the Cold War, the Vietnam War, 
        and more recent efforts such as Operation Enduring Freedom and 
        Operation Iraqi Freedom;
            (6) male veterans are twice as likely to become homeless 
        compared to their non-veteran counterparts;
            (7) female veterans are almost 4 times as likely to become 
        homeless than their non-veteran counterparts;
            (8) it is imperative that the United States Government 
        provide homeless or at-risk veterans with the services they 
        need to prevent and end their homeless situations; and
            (9) the programs reauthorized by this Act provide important 
        housing and services to homeless veterans and deserve to be 
        reauthorized.
