We’re here in DC today with @jonstewart & @Burnpit360 lobbying the Senate to pass the Honoring Our PACT Act.
While national leaders drag their feet on this important legislation, our Veterans are suffering.
It’s time to pass the Honoring our PACT Act. #PassThePACTAct
This legislation would expand healthcare coverage for more than 3 million veterans who were exposed to toxins and burn pits during their service.
It was poised to pass, but yesterday 25 Republican Senators flipped their votes and halted the PACT Act.

.@JohnCornyn and @tedcruz were among those who chose partisan politics over the health and well-being of our veterans.
Even though Texas has the most Veterans on the national burn pit registry.

I’m here in DC fighting for our veterans because the men and women who defended our nation deserve better than political games.
We personally stopped by Cornyn and Cruz’s offices to ask they why they stopped supporting the Honoring our PACT Act.
Being here and listening to the stories of these Veterans has been eye opening.
It is beyond devastating that our Senators can look these men and women in the eyes and deny them the healthcare they need to survive.
So we need your help.
Tell your family and friends to call every Senator on this list and demand they pass the PACT Act.
Our Veterans had our back, it’s time for us to have theirs.
We’re still waiting on the Senate to pass the #PACTAct and expand healthcare coverage for more than 3 million veterans.
If you’re in DC tonight, join us on the steps of the Capitol from 8 PM to 6 AM to fight for our Veterans.
