Representing veteran-heavy NE-02, Don Bacon has abandoned his veteran constituents and their families following reporting that the Trump Administration will allow VA hospitals to refuse to treat some veterans in need of care.
New reporting by the Guardian revealed that this newest order eliminated the rule requiring VA doctors to treat veterans regardless of their political affiliations or marital status.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are nearly 30,000 veterans in Don Bacon’s district.
Don Bacon has refused to lift a finger as thousands of their constituents may lose the health care they were promised when they put their lives on the line for our country.
DCCC Spokesperson Madison Andrus:
“Don Bacon’s willingness to abandon Nebraska’s veterans for partisan politics is despicable. When our veterans were defending our country, it didn’t matter what party they belonged to or if they were married – the only thing that mattered was serving their country. Veterans deserve representatives that won’t leave them out to dry.”
