Congresswoman votes for The Honoring Our PACT Act

5th District Congresswoman Jahana Hayes has voted for The Honoring Our PACT Act.  The legislation would grant veterans with 23 cancers and respiratory illnesses automatic medical coverage from the VA.  Hayes says when servicemembers are sent into harm's way, it's done with a promise to care for them when they come home.  Over 3.5 million veterans were exposed to airborne toxic chemicals from burn pits overseas dating as far back as Operation Desert Storm.  The bill includes a measure she introduced, the Palomares Veterans Act, which will remove barriers to care and benefits for toxic exposed veterans.  More than 1,600 veterans exposed to plutonium while responding to the 1966 nuclear accident in Palomares, Spain.
