What is the PACT Act?
"The Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson Honoring Our PACT Act (PACT Act) grants permanent Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare eligibility to 3.5 million post-9/11 veterans. The PACT Act also adds more than 20 new presumptive service-connected illnesses related to exposure to burn pits and other toxic substances for veterans who served in Iraq, Afghanistan, and surrounding areas."
The PACT Act was signed into law in August of 2022, and represents the largest expansion of benefits for veterans and their survivors in decades.
