Loudermilk: ‘Our Veterans Deserve Quality Health Care’

Rep. Loudermilk (R-GA) issued the following statement after voting for the VETERAN Act, which gives veterans the option to use tax credits to purchase private health insurance:

"Our veterans have sacrificed a great deal for us and, in return, we should keep our promises to them. That includes providing quality health care options. If the VA is not meeting their needs, then they should be able to have health care choices that do. Common sense, market-based approaches to health care work best for everyone. By giving our veterans the best access to quality care, they can get the care they deserve."

Background

The VETERAN Act, H.R. 2372, codifies a regulation into law that gives veterans the option to use tax credits, if they're eligible for VA health care, to purchase insurance on the individual marketplace.
