Bullsheet....I am vet just finished 8 weeks of radiation due to AO exposure...

In June 85 senators voted for this, but after the Manchin-Schumer deal these brave GOP asshats decided we’re going to show those mean old Dims and demonstrate again the GOP doesn’t care about the Veterans who have served.

I question the fact the bill is $650 Billion, what exactly is all this money for? Then there is a rider of some sort for another $400 Billion that has nothing to do with this bill at all.

I sincerely regret your health problems. And hope for a speedy recovery from treatments.

However, this is not the same bill . HR 3967 Honoring Our Pact Act of 2022.Passed House in March, 2022. Passed Senate in June, with Amendments attached. It was/is not a "clean bill." Lots of unaccounted for $pending.

Although it adds Hypertension and Monoclonal Gammopathy to list of Presumptive Illnesses, it does not take effect until Oct. 2026 for hypertension. Unless the Vet is 85 or terminally ill, homeless, or very destitute. See Sec. 404 of the bill.

HR 3967 has been passed back and forth between House/Senate for years no. Or similar type legislation.
