A bill to name the health care facility of the Department of Veterans Affairs located at 820 South Damen Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, as the "Jesse Brown Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center".

This bill, introduced in 2003, officially designated the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical center on South Damen Avenue in Chicago as the "Jesse Brown Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center." The legislation honors Jesse Brown, a Marine Corps veteran and the first African American to serve as the U.S. Secretary of Veterans Affairs.

For citizens and veterans, this change was primarily symbolic and did not alter the medical services, eligibility, or operations of the facility. The practical impact involved updating the facility's signage, official documents, and community identity to recognize Secretary Brown’s legacy of advocacy for disabled and homeless veterans. The facility continues to serve the Chicago area under this name today.
