Joe Manchin actually said...

We are not providing parity between active-duty and reserve component service.

We must do better. I am calling on my Democratic colleagues on the Committee to make joining the important piece of legislation a priority.

It is cheaper to send a National Guard soldier over to get injured or killed than it is an active duty soldier.

We need to pass this legislation as soon as possible to ensure our veterans have the access to care that they desperately need.
