Biden signs PACT Act expanding healthcare for veterans exposed to toxic burn pits

President Biden signs the Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics (PACT) Act, which expands healthcare and benefits for veterans exposed to toxic burn pits and other toxic substances during military service. The legislation is a personal priority for Biden, whose son Beau served in Iraq and died of brain cancer. The bill also improves VA healthcare access and requires the VA to establish a presumption of service connection for certain conditions.
