Veterans who served at the Pentagon between September 11 and November 19, 2001, would get automatic VA benefits for certain illnesses.
Veterans who served at the Pentagon between September 11 and November 19, 2001, would get easier access to VA health benefits for certain illnesses. This bill would assume their conditions are linked to their service. This means they would not have to prove the connection themselves.
Today, veterans who served at the Pentagon after 9/11 must provide direct evidence to prove that certain diseases are connected to their service there. If this bill becomes law, the Department of Veterans Affairs would automatically assume that specific diseases are connected to their service for veterans who were at the Pentagon between September 11, 2001, and November 19, 2001.
