ICYMI: Rubio-Gillibrand: Time to Act on Toxic Burn Pits
Our Veterans Are Still Suffering
By Senators Marco Rubio and Kirsten Gillibrand

America’s longest war may be over, but many veterans who answered the call to serve their nation are still suffering. Countless service members still endure harm from their exposure to toxic burn pits in Afghanistan, Iraq and beyond. Their anguish—mental and physical—is real, and it is devastating for our service members and their families.

We can’t let that history repeat itself in the fight to provide health coverage for the men and women who contributed to the effort to degrade al-Qaeda and hunt down Osama bin Laden.
Now is the time to do the right thing for our war fighters. This isn’t a partisan issue. This isn’t a budget issue. This is a moral issue. …
