Steube Introduces Bill to Study Radiation Effects on Enewetak Atoll Veterans
“As a Veteran and a member of the Veterans’ Affairs Committee, I know the importance of listening to Veterans to ensure they are receiving the care they deserve. This bill will direct the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to partner with the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NAS) to conduct a small-scale study to review the findings from a previous radiation dose assessment (RDA) conducted by the Department of Defense (DOD). If there are discrepancies in the original RDA, I’m determined to get to the bottom of it.”
