Our nation’s service members deserve access to resources that help them succeed at transitioning to civilian life. For this reason, Senator Braun led a bipartisan effort with Senator Hassan of New Hampshire to actively hire veterans and transitioning service members who have the skills critically needed in federal health care departments. More specifically, the Hire Veteran Health Heroes Act of 2021 (S. 894) directs the Department of Veterans Affairs to actively recruit medical personnel who are within one year of completing their military service, and to encourage them to remain in federal health care in departments like Veterans Affairs. The Senate Committee Veterans Affairs held a hearing to consider this bill on April 29, 2021; the Committee then favorably reported this bill on June 24, 2021; the U.S. Senate then unanimously passed the Hire Veteran Health Heroes Act of 2021 on July 21, 2021, followed by passage in the U.S. House of Representatives on November 15, 2021. President Biden signed Senator Braun’s bill into law on November 20, 2021. Now that this legislation has been signed into law, the country is one step closer to fulfilling our obligation to those who have served get the best health services possible.
