Yesterday, I spoke on the Senate floor on my plan to introduce legislation and pass the Major Richard Star Act along with other bipartisan legislation to improve health care and benefits for veterans.
It has been over five years since the Major Richard Star Act was introduced, and under both Republican and Democratic majorities, it has failed to pass either the House or the Senate. I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to work with me on this path forward to restore benefits to retirees with combat-related disabilities, offset the costs of those benefits, earn the support of veterans and advocates, and pass the Senate and House to be signed into law.

82 years ago today, thousands of Americans gave their lives in the Allied invasion of Normandy. We thank them for their service, and we remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
