2024 MA Senate race: on Homeland Security


John Deaton: Expand Veterans Choice Program to outside the VA

Having served in the U.S. Marine Corps, I understand the personal sacrifice that our men and women in uniform--and their families--make to keep our nation safe. When elected, supporting Veterans will be my top priority.

I support choice for Veterans. I believe we should expand the Veterans Choice Program to allow Veterans to seek treatment outside of the VA system to meet their medical needs and reduce the strain on the VA.

We must expand mental health services for Veterans returning home from foreign wars and conflicts. Thousands of troops have returned home from Afghanistan and Iraq with PTSD that has gone untreated. This is wrong, and as your next Senator, I will fight to be on the Veterans Affairs Committee and fight to ensure that every service member who needs care receives it.
