Memorializes President and Congress to expand certain benefits to grandchildren of veterans impacted by Agent Orange.
This New Jersey concurrent resolution asks the President and Congress to extend existing benefits to grandchildren of veterans exposed to Agent Orange who have Spina Bifida. Currently, only the children of these veterans qualify for financial aid, healthcare, and support services under the Agent Orange Benefits Act of 1996. The bill seeks to include grandchildren in these programs to help cover lifelong medical costs and provide educational and employment assistance. If adopted, the resolution would be sent to federal leaders to consider updating the federal law.
