5th District Congresswoman Jahana Hayes says a new report by U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs shows suicide rates among veterans in Connecticut increased while fewer veterans reached out to the VA for help.  But she says legislation she introduced to strengthen mental health care for veterans was signed into law by the President recently. The bipartisan VA Mental Health Staffing Act and provisions from the VA Mental Health Counseling Act were included in the Commander John Scott Hannon Veterans Mental Health Care Improvement Act.
