Proud to join @DepSecDef yesterday to encourage Veterans and service members to get the VA care and benefits they deserve.
Millions of Veterans are now eligible for VA benefits for exposure to burn pits, Agent Orange, and other toxins. Apply today➡️VA.gov/PACT
.@VADepSecRemy & I stopped by a PACT Act & VA Benefits Fair yesterday. We met with a team of professionals committed to supporting #Veterans who may have been exposed to toxic substances, chemicals & airborne hazards during their military service.
Today, I told the great team at VA that I will step down as deputy secretary on April 1.
There is no greater mission than serving our nation’s Veterans. Thanks to @POTUS, @SecVetAffairs, all of VA, and my fellow Veterans for the opportunity of a lifetime. va.gov/opa/pressrel/pressrel…
Honored to participate in this historic event.
Black Veterans have served our nation in every conflict since the American Revolution. Now, it's our job – at VA and as a nation – to serve them.

Today, I had the honor of recognizing longtime volunteer Pete Gannon for his years of dedicated service to his fellow Veterans in Sunrise, Florida.
We at VA are grateful for Pete and all of our volunteers, who help us deliver world-class care to Vets all across the country.
Native Americans serve in the military at higher rates than any other group of Americans. We at VA are upholding our promise to these Veterans, who have given so much for this country.
The Department of Veterans Affairs will waive all copays for eligible Native Americans in an effort to boost use of primary care medicine among the underserved population on.wsj.com/3XjYN7M

Today, I got a chance to attend the naturalization ceremony for 25 new U.S. citizens, from 22 countries—including 8 current service members.
It was an honor to be there as they swore their Oath of Allegiance and became citizens of our great nation. news.va.gov/110970/depsec-re…
