New VA secretary and Sen Tester meet with Billings vets

PAUL HAMBY The recently-appointed Veterans Affairs secretary visited Billings on Monday to attend a closed-door discussion with local veterans, heads of veterans’ advocacy groups and VA officials. Secretary Denis McDonough, on invitation from Sen. Jon Tester, met with about 20 people at Montana State University Billings. He said the visit to the state is part of the VA and Biden administration s prioritizing rural health care for vets, who nationwide have shown a renewed interest in the department since the outbreak of COVID-19. “We think that the moment we’re in now, where we’re seeing a surge of interest in care at the VA to get vaccinations for COVID…, we think that’s an opportunity for us to ask, to seek, other vets to come back into our system,” McDonough said after the round table talk.

U.S. Senator John Boozman (R-AR) held a virtual meeting with members of the Arkansas Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and expressed his support for the organization’s 2021 legislative priorities, including helping families of veterans who passed away as a result of the coronavirus and providing disabled veterans full military benefits. Boozman has joined members of the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs to reintroduce the  Ensuring Survivor Benefits During COVID Act, a bipartisan bill that would provide proper benefits to family members of veterans who die from the coronavirus. Currently, a veteran who passes away from COVID-19 may have their death listed as “COVID-19” without accounting for service-connected disabilities that were contributing factors.
