The Dept. of Veterans Affairs has received a subpoena from the House Veterans Affairs Committee, asking for more information about the VA’s long-delayed, far over-budget hospital under construction in Aurora, Colo.
The project’s cost is estimated at about $1.68 billion, more than five times the 2004 estimate of $328 million, according to a 2015 U.S. Government Accountability Office report. The current price tag is down slightly from an early 2015 estimate of $1.73 billion.
