Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) opposes the comprehensive veterans’ legislation package introduced by House and Senate Republicans, Take Care of America’s Veterans Act (H.R. 9237), based on its intent to finance new veterans benefits by reducing or restricting earned disability compensation for other disabled veterans.

Why IAVA opposes this proposal:
— The proposal targets veterans living with service-connected tinnitus and sleep apnea.
— Cutting compensation for some disabilities creates a dangerous precedent for future reductions to other earned benefits.

What you can do:
— Contact your Members of Congress.
— Urge lawmakers to reject any proposal that reduces earned disability compensation.
