NEWS: Sanders, Welch, Booker Introduce Legislation to Close Eligibility Gaps in Health Care Access for Millions of Veterans, the National Guard, and Reserve Service Members

Press Release

"As a longtime member and former Chair of the Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee, I have seen up close the pain, death, and despair caused by war and its aftermath. Honoring the extraordinary sacrifice and bravery of our veterans, Guard and Reserve service members is one of the most important commitments we have as a country. It's time to stop making veterans jump through bureaucratic hoops to get the health care and benefits they have earned and were promised. These two pieces of legislation will go a long way in cutting through the red tape so that millions more veterans, National Guard and Reserve service members, and their families receive the best and most comprehensive health care our country can provide."
