Memorializes President and Congress to expand certain benefits to grandchildren of veterans impacted by Agent Orange.
This New Jersey Senate Concurrent Resolution asks the President and Congress to extend health and financial benefits to grandchildren of veterans exposed to Agent Orange during the Korean and Vietnam Wars. The bill specifically targets grandchildren diagnosed with Spina Bifida, a condition linked to Agent Orange exposure, to receive the same support as the children of affected veterans. If adopted, the resolution would request federal action to include these grandchildren under the existing Agent Orange Benefits Act of 1996, which currently provides medical care, vocational programs, and financial assistance. The measure does not create new funding but seeks to expand eligibility for existing federal benefits to a broader group of descendants.
