Today marks one year since the Honoring our PACT Act became law
Today, the DCCC is reminding Pennsylvanians that extremist Scott Perry voted against the bipartisan Honoring Our PACT Act, which was signed into law by President Biden one year ago.
Perry voted against:
Expanding access to critical care for veterans who were exposed to dangerous toxic chemicals during their service
Extending the period of time that post-9/11 combat veterans have to enroll in VA health care from five years to 10 years
Authorizing new VA medical and research centers in Pennsylvania
Streamlining veterans’ ability to access critical resources and care
This isn’t the first time Perry has voted against the brave men and women who have served our nation. This Congress, Perry voted for the Default on America Act, which would cut veterans’ health benefits and lead to a dramatic increase in the disability claims backlog.
DCCC spokesperson Aidan Johnson:
“When Perry voted against the Honoring Our PACT Act, he put party politics over service to country. Perry’s vote against aiding toxic-exposed veterans is a reminder of just how extreme and unwilling he is to work to find common ground for those who deserve it the most.”
