After three years of litigation between civil rights groups and the Department of Veterans' Affairs, Mayor Eric Garcetti has promised to house them before the end of this year. VA Secretary Robert McDonald is in town today to re-open one of the buildings that have long been empty on the VA's sprawling campus in West Los Angeles.
