Dear John,
As a father of a veteran, I never take for granted the personal sacrifices made by our veterans on behalf of our nation. Simply saying “thank you” doesn’t seem to be enough. We have a responsibility to support our veterans long after they’ve hung up their uniforms. And this year, we delivered something big: The PACT Act.
|
Today, Congressman Norcross attended Veterans Day events in Gloucester and Camden counties |
The PACT Act is a long-overdue legislation that expands VA health care benefits to veterans exposed to toxic burn pits and Agent Orange during their service. Instead of getting the run-around and having to jump through hoops to connect health conditions to their service, they can now receive the care they need for 23 common conditions that result from toxic fume exposure.
Veterans can learn more about the PACT Act and other resources available to military families here.
As a member of the House Armed Services Committee (HASC) and the Chairman of the Tactical Air and Land Subcommittee, I am committed to fighting for both our active duty servicemembers and our veterans and ensuring they have all the resources they need. Today, I am especially thankful for their service.
Sincerely,
Donald Norcross Member of Congress
