Friends -
Last month, the United States Senate voted to pass legislation that will cover health care for veterans suffering illnesses linked to exposure to toxins like those from burn pits in Iraq and Afghanistan. It also extends care to Vietnam veterans suffering from exposure to Agent Orange.
Yesterday, the bill returned to the Senate to make a small fix everyone thought was supposed to be quick and simple.
Then... Republicans voted to stop the bill.
They callously stalled help for sick and dying veterans as a way of throwing a fit because Democrats came to an agreement on a reconciliation bill they thought wasn’t happening.
And every second this bill is delayed — every second Republicans keep veterans from getting the care they earned is unacceptable.
Republicans delaying this bill further is beyond reprehensible. We will not forget this disgusting display from the GOP.
This is why we exist: To call these Republican Senators out — by name and by party — when they act so maliciously.
We will start by holding accountable those who voted no and are up for re-election this year. Help us:
