SENATE RESOLUTION URGING THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS TO ENACT TECHNICAL AMENDMENTS TO THE CAMP LEJEUNE JUSTICE ACT OF 2022

This Rhode Island Senate resolution urges the U.S. Congress to pass technical amendments to the federal Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022. The bill directly affects military personnel and their families who were exposed to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987 and are seeking compensation for health injuries. It calls for changes to clarify legal standards and improve the speed of claim processing to address current administrative delays. The resolution does not create new laws itself but serves as a formal request to the federal government to fix existing issues in the claims system.
