He was joined by former Army Specialist Susan Moseley of Lexington, a survivor of military sexual trauma whose story helped inspire Congressman Barr to write the legislation. Click here to view video of Congressman Barr and Specialist Moseleys appearance before the committee. Currently, survivors of military sexual trauma are only able to receive treatment outside the Veterans Administration (VA) health system if a VA employee believes the victim cannot be treated within the system or if the victim lives too far away from a VA facility. The Military SAVE Act would allow survivors of military sexual trauma the choice to seek specialized care outside of the Veterans Administration health care system. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
