it was taking the department of veterans' affairs too long to address these veteran illnesses due to the perceived costs and obtaining the scientific evidence in order to help. we knew there was a strong need and with the lessons learned we knew we need to act. this was the origin of the rnf pact act. we make a pact to care for them. this is one of the most sacred promises in our country and ultimate goal of this law. thanks to the pact act veterans no longer need to prove the connection between service and illness. it outlines 2323 pathways representing 300 conditions for which veterans can get health care and benefits. and since the law was signed several more have been added to the list with more on the way. congress is able to work together on a bipartisan basis to get this done for veterans. unfortunately, not much has gotten done for veterans since then which troubles me. helping those who served should be a nonpartisan issue and one that gets attention no matter which party is in charge. when president biden -- thank you. i'll continue momentarily. but at this time, i would li
