WHAT THEY ARE SAYING: ORGANIZATIONS URGE HOUSE PASSAGE OF ELIZABETH DOLE HOME CARE ACT

Press Release

"This bicameral and bipartisan bill represents some of the excellent work we can do on behalf of veterans when we work together and find common ground. It will expand access to a variety of VA programs for elderly and disabled veterans, enabling them to remain at home, safely age in place, and avoid or delay admission to nursing homes and other costly institutional settings of care. It is time for the House to vote on H.R. 542, this landmark legislation championed by our Health Subcommittee Ranking Member, Julia Brownley. Time is of the essence for veterans and their caregivers."
