About this Episode

Coming to you from The American Legion National Convention in Milwaukee, hosts Jeff and Ashley get an update on American Legion legislative successes and upcoming activity with repeat guest, American Legion National Legislative Director Lawrence Montreuil.

Lawrence talks about the success of the Honor our PACT act, the role Legion members played in helping the bill become law, and the impact the new law will have on millions of veterans exposed to toxins during their military service.

Lawrence also talks about the work that still needs to be done on other legislation, such as the Afghan Adjustment Act, and how to get involved through the Voter Voice portal.
