Veterans Left Behind | Wilmington News
Description
Veterans injured in combat who’re medically retired before 20 years face a brutal choice: lose part of their earned retirement pay to get disability compensation. Meanwhile, millions of unpaid caregivers—many who sacrificed careers and savings—are left in the lurch. Congress had a shot to fix it all with the “Take Care of America’s Veterans Act,” which bundles 60+ stalled priorities, including ending the unfair pay offset, expanding survivor benefits, and supporting caregivers. Without this bill passing, billions meant for vets and families will vanish into the Treasury. It’s time to honor the real cost of service with real action—not just words.
