I thank the gentleman for his concern. This amendment would increase funding in the defense health program account, aiming to improve coordination between the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs, as both agencies study the effects of toxic exposure to burn pits. It is important to both Departments to be aware of what the other has done in this important area of research, therefore, I am prepared to accept the amendment. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
