I need to find all of the dates/bills in which the House Republicans voted on or attempted to slash veterans benefits funding dating back to 2000 primarily.

You guys are always a great resource for these types of searches and I'd much rather start here rather than dig forever on Google if I can avoid it.

3. Try Disabled American Veterans too
DAV could probably point you in the right direction. In a stunningly insensitive move the House Veterans' Affairs Committee Chairman, Steve Buyer (R-IN) recently announced that for the first time in at least 55 years, veterans service organizations will no longer have the opportunity to present testimony before a joint hearing of the House and Senate Veterans' Affairs Committees.

This was announced three days before Veterans' Day. Guess they didn't want to have to look them in the eyes as they continue to take away their benefits. The DAV, who has been the voice for America’s service-connected disabled veterans had a few remarks. The Disabled American Veterans called the move “An insult to all who have fought, sacrificed and died to defend the Constitution.” They added that the timing, could not have been worse.

I imagine they have a lot of information that could help you and they are pretty steamed right about now. Here is the link to their web site. http://www.dav.org/ Good luck.
