| Support letter for S.326 the Elizabeth Dole Veterans Program Act of 2023. On April 26 the Senate held a cloture vote to consider an amended version of S.326 which contains provisions from the 5 bills listed below. All of these bills are in alignment with at least one DAV resolution. They are S.106 S141 S.185 S216 and S.326.
These five bills previously passed out fo the Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee with unanimous consent. DAV CAN members emails to their Senators asking for their support on S.326 yet it appears that some lawmakers chose the path of polarizing politics at the expense of our nation's veterans and voted NO on consideration of the legislative package. This package would have a profound impact on the lives of veterans and their families: improve outreach and assistance about veterans' benefits and services;
expand long-term care options for aging veterans so they can live more independently with respect and dignity;
create better home loan options for Native American veterans; and study the effects of medicinal cannabis on veterans with chronic pain or PTSD
