Dear

Thank

VA
Mission
Act
Last
Wednesday,
I
was
happy
to
see
the
VA
Mission
Act
signed
into
law.
After
sacrificing
so
much
throughout
their
military
careers,
our
veterans
should
have
access
to
high
quality
care.
The
current
VA
healthcare
program
still
has
unacceptable
wait
times
and
falls
short
of
providing
the
care
our
veterans
have
both
earned
and
deserve.
The
VA
Mission
Act
is
designed
to
fix
current
inefficiencies
that
will
cut
wait
times,
streamline
services,
and
provide
better
care.
It
also
expands
a
much
needed
caregiver
program.
I
was
proud
to
vote
for
this
important
legislation
last
month
and
was
incredibly
grateful
to
see
it
become
law
last
week.

Act here.
Action
for
Dental
Health
Act
of
2018
On
Thursday,
I
helped
introduce
the
Action
for
Dental
Health
Act
of
2018,
a
bill
that
will
reauthorize
initiatives
that
increase
access
to
oral
health
treatment
and
prevention
services,
particularly
for
underserved
communities.
Dental
care
is
an
important
part
of
our
overall
health
and
we
should
work
to
make
sure
families
have
access
to
basic
oral
care.
I
am
confident
this
legislation
will
help
promote
better
education
of
dental
services
and
improve
availability
of
care
across
the
country,
even
in
our
most
underserved
communities.
I
am
proud
to
support
the
Action
for
Dental
Health
Act
alongside
Senators
Booker,
Cassidy,
and
Hirono
and
look
forward
to
the
Senate
considering
this
important
measure
in
the
near
future.
You

this
legislation here.
Around
the
State
This
morning,
I
was
happy
to
join
Palmetto
Boys
State
at
Anderson
University.
I
had
a
great
time
speaking
to
and
encouraging
over
1,100
fine
young
men,
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
all
of
the
great
things
they
will
do
for
our
state
and
country
in
the
future!
Sincerely,
Tim |
