“Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Madam Speaker, life insurance is designed to offer protection from loss and serves as a death benefit. For a veteran or servicemember, VA's Veterans' Group Life Insurance offers security and confidence that loved ones will be covered and made financially whole in the event a source of income is lost.

Madam Speaker, I support this bill, I urge all of my colleagues to do the same, and I reserve the balance of my time.”
