If America is willing to send our servicemembers into harm's way, then we MUST be willing to ensure we take care of all those who have borne the battle. Today's hearing will discuss legislation addressing the effects of toxic exposure – a top priority for Chairman @RepMarkTakano.

"I believe burn pits are our generation's #AgentOrange." Learn about @RepSlotkin's bill, the Veterans Burn Pits Recognition Act, which removes the burden of proof so veterans exposed to burn pits during their service can get the care & benefits they've earned at @DeptVetAffairs.

We need to recognize toxic exposure as a cost of war. Lingering health problems stemming from toxic exposure has impacted veterans long after they separate from service and cause issues when they seek care and benefits from VA. Learn more ⬇️

Staying home and practicing social distancing will stem the #coronavirus outbreak, but what if you’re feeling healthy and bored? Is it okay to go to the park, go to the store or order delivery? Use caution, and remember, we're all in this together! #TeamDAV #FlattentheCurve
