For months, much of the fight over one of the largest veterans legislative packages in years has centered on two medical conditions: sleep apnea and tinnitus. But leaders of some of the nation's largest veterans and military family organizations say that debate is obscuring who else is riding on the Take Care of America's Veterans Act, or TCAVA. The package brings together more than 60 veterans-related legislative provisions and could eventually affect an estimated 32 million veterans, service members, caregivers, survivors and family members, according to The American Legion. Some of those proposals have spent years trying to make their way through Congress. Others would address benefits for surviving families and caregivers that advocates say have gone largely unchanged for decades. More than 20 national veterans and military organizations have lined up behind the legislation, including The American Legion, Military Officers Association of America, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors and the Elizabeth Dole Foundation. To understand why those organizations continue to support TCAVA despite the controversy surrounding it, Military.com spoke separately with retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Brian Kelly, president and CEO of MOAA; Bonnie Carroll, president and founder of TAPS; and Mario Marquez, executive director of government affairs for The American Legion. Military.com also received statements from former U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole and Steve Schwab, CEO of the Elizabeth Dole Foundation. Their argument isn't that TCAVA is perfect. Instead, the leaders described a calculation: whether concerns about how the package would be funded outweigh a rare opportunity to enact dozens of long-sought changes for veterans, caregivers, survivors and military families at once. For their organizations, the answer has been no.
