Sergeant Dave Crete FORGOTTEN Veterans Act of 2026
Referred to the Subcommittee on Disability Assistance and Memorial Affairs.
Summary
The bill directs the Veterans Administration, together with the Defense Department, to identify veterans who served at designated Nevada test ranges or DOE‑listed facilities and to presume toxic exposure and related disease connections without requiring proof. It creates a registry, adds new presumptions to existing benefit statutes, and mandates a scientific study of health impacts. The goal is to improve benefits and health monitoring for veterans who may have been harmed by historic toxic environments.
