Restoring Maximum Mobility to Our Nation's Veterans Act of 2017

Restoring Maximum Mobility to Our Nation's Veterans Act of 2017

This bill directs the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to ensure that each wheelchair furnished to a veteran because of a service-connected disability restores the maximum achievable mobility and function in the activities of daily life, employment, and recreation. The VA may furnish a wheelchair to a veteran because the wheelchair restores an ability that relates exclusively to participation in a recreational activity.
