Tell Senator McConnell: Stop blocking funding to improve veterans' health care

Tell Senator McConnell: Stop blocking funding to improve veterans' health care

This week the Senate has a chance to pass bipartisan legislation that would allow the VA to lease new health care facilities and hire the doctors and nurses needed to keep up with the new veterans created after two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
A similar bill passed the House, so hopefully this is the final step before instituting the kind of changes we need to ensure the tragedies at Phoenix and other VA facilities across the country never happen again.
Sign our joint-petition calling on Mitch McConnell to stop blocking funding for veterans’ health care, and pass the Sanders-McCain legislation this week.
