AR 135 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Urges Congress to pass "Improving Menopause Care for Veterans Act of 2025."

This New Jersey Assembly resolution urges the U.S. Congress to pass the "Improving Menopause Care for Veterans Act of 2025," which would address healthcare needs for women veterans experiencing menopause symptoms. The proposed federal law would require the Government Accountability Office to study current Veterans Affairs medical services for this demographic and mandate improvements to access and quality of care. The bill specifically targets the approximately 630,000 women veterans aged 40 to 54 who may face compounded health challenges due to military service and hormonal changes. As a formal request rather than binding legislation, the resolution directs copies to federal leaders and the VA Secretary to advocate for these policy changes.
