Democrats value veterans and their families for their work and sacrifice on behalf of our country. In return, Democrats work hard to deliver for veterans. Here is a non-exhaustive list of accomplishments by the Biden administration over the last three years:
- PACT claims granted to 9,812 Tennessee Veterans (so far)
- New VA enrollments for 8,188 Tennessee Veterans thanks to the PACT Act
- Free screenings for toxic exposure to 4.1M veterans
- $1.85B in benefits to veterans and survivors of toxic exposure
- 16% increase in processing speed for veterans’ claims
- $215M in benefits to veterans suffering from cancer
- Increased staffing at VA and VHA for faster services to veterans
- Eliminated benefits delays for veterans (by several years)
- Provide permanent housing for homeless veterans at a rate of 40,000 per year
- Work transition program (post-discharge) for 200,000 veterans
- Cutting red tape for veterans to select their caregivers
The work continues. The Biden administration and Democrats across the country are fighting for:
- A proposal to triple rental assistance for low-income veterans
- A proposal of investments into mental health & suicide prevention efforts dedicated to Veterans
