HR 1585 and S 565 are companion bills that will provide for the treatment of veterans who participated in the cleanup of Enewetak Atoll as radiation-exposed veterans for purposes of the presumption of service-connection of certain disabilities by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs.
MVA has supported similar bills in previous Congress'. It is time to move this bill off dead center and provide these veterans their earned benefits while they are still alive.
Please ask your Member of Congress and Senators to co-sponsor these bills.
