Why District of Columbia specifically

A District of Columbia veteran filing for VA disability waits ~125 days for a decision. Their landlord does not wait. Their utility company does not wait. We sit in that gap — paying a District of Columbia landlord directly so the veteran does not become homeless while waiting for the VA to decide.
