It is vitally important. We find that when a caregiver is so isolated, so alone, they do not know there are others out there.
I do not see how we can be a nation that truly cares for our military and veteran communities if we wait another day to get this legislation passed.
I hope that that piece of legislation is going to pass because if we want to foster a Nation that supports hidden heroes, all hidden heroes, these wonderful caregivers, then it is important to pass both pieces of legislation.
Right. Well, we know from our caregivers who are enrolled in Medicaid that the program provides valuable--it is an extra coverage or valuable supplement for some of the expenses that the VA program does not cover.
