Obama signs law to improve veterans healthcare funding
Thursday President Obama signed into law a bipartisan bill that aims to improve health care for America's veterans. The law allows Congress to fund veterans' health care a year in advance, making the funding more reliable. Senator Jon Tester was one of the supporters of the measure. He says the measure will take some of the uncertainty out of veterans' health care funding.
"With the President's signature, this new law will make a big difference for Montana's veterans and veterans across this country. This is a bipartisan health care bill worked on in the Veterans' Affairs Committee and it's about doing right for this country's veterans," said Senator Tester. Senator Max Baucus is a cosponsor of the measure called the "Veterans Health Care Budget Reform and Transparency Act."
