WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) – chairman of the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee – today applauded President Donald J. Trump for signing into law H.R. 7105, as amended, the Johnny Isakson and David P. Roe, M.D. Veterans Health Care and Benefits Improvement Act of 2020:

“Congress passed this critical end-of-year veterans package to enact changes and provide support for every corner of our veteran community. I applaud President Trump for signing this important legislation into law to invest in the GI Bill and provide economic opportunities for veterans. Equally as important, this bill improves care and reduces barriers for women veterans, so they can have greater access to the benefits they have earned and expands resources for veterans hardest hit by this pandemic, whether that be financial hardship or limited access to community resources for homeless veterans. I am grateful for my colleagues serving on the House and Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committees, as well as our partners from the Veterans Service Organizations for their work in creating this legislation that will positively impact veterans for years to come.”
