My bill to support Micronesian veterans, H.R. 6652, the U.S. Vets of the FAS Act, passed out of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee with unanimous bipartisan support.

This legislation is about honoring the service and sacrifice of our COFA veterans by ensuring they receive access to the care and benefits they have earned, including telehealth, beneficiary travel, and medications as the bill now advances to the House Floor.
