During the hearing, Heller spoke on behalf of Nevada veterans who are concerned about what impact toxic exposure has on their long-term health or the health of their children and grandchildren. Specifically, Heller asked witnesses from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) how they address the concerns of these veterans and ensure proper research is carried out to examine the potential health impacts faced by those who bravely served our nation. What strikes me most about this hearing is not only about exposures to toxins and how they can be linked to certain diseases for our veterans, but as important are the birth defects and other problems that affect their children and grandchildren. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
