The bipartisan #EXPLOREAct has passed the Natural Resources Committee, incorporating provisions to enhance biking and climbing opportunities on public lands. The bill aims to improve access to outdoor recreation for all, particularly veterans. Several lawmakers, including @RepJerryNadler, @RepJasonCrow, @SenatorRounds, @RepDustyJohnson, and @Rep_Stansbury, have been involved in discussions and meetings to promote veterans' access to healthcare and benefits, as well as to address concerns about VA care. Additionally, bills related to firearm access and identification for tribal members have been passed by the House Judiciary Committee, with a focus on protecting Second Amendment rights for servicemembers and tribal members.
Met with @SecVetAffairs Denis McDonough with my fellow @BipartisanVets from the For Country Caucus to discuss our shared commitment to ensuring that the VA is properly and promptly serving veterans. https://t.co/52MF86JAIc
This week my bipartisan Veterans and Outdoor Accessibility bill passed out of the House Natural Resources committee as a part of the EXPLORE Act. This bill will help ensure that our parks, campgrounds, and beloved fishing spots are accessible to all, especially our Veterans!
We discussed Veterans Affairs services and benefits with Secretary McDonough at our For Country Caucus meeting. We’re fighting for those who have fought for us. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/1gX4eHhSmc
