Tillis, Colleagues Introduce Post Traumatic Stress Resolution

Statement

This week, U.S. Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) introduced a bipartisan resolution designating the month of June as National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Month and June 27 as National Post-Traumatic Stress Awareness Day. Representatives Scott Peters (D-CA), Brian Mast (R-FL), Anthony Brindisi (D-NY), and John Katko (R-NY) have introduced a companion resolution in the House.

"North Carolina is the proud home of nearly one million veterans, and fully honoring and caring for them requires understanding and addressing the invisible wounds of war, including post-traumatic stress," said Senator Tillis. "I will continue to work on bipartisan solutions to make sure that our veterans and servicemembers have access to the critical support and health care services they need and deserve."
