A Resolution designating the month of October 2024 as "Agent Orange Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania.

This Pennsylvania House Resolution designates October 2024 as "Agent Orange Awareness Month" to honor Vietnam War veterans who were exposed to herbicides during their service. The measure highlights the health risks faced by these veterans, including those who served on ships in offshore waters, and acknowledges federal laws that presume certain diseases are linked to Agent Orange exposure.
