Pass the Major Richard Star Act.
A combat injury shouldn’t cause a service member to lose retirement compensation simply because that injury ended their military career before they could reach 20 years. The Star Act is about how the nation compensates those whose careers were cut short by service-connected and combat-related disabilities.

CENTCOM Statement on Recently Fallen, Missing U.S. Service Members
TAMPA, Fla. — On July 17, two U.S. service members in Jordan were killed in action as U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) and partner forces defended against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks. Additionally, one service member is currently missing.
Four American service members were medically evacuated to Jordanian hospitals. They have since been discharged. Other personnel who were evaluated for minor injuries have returned to duty.
Out of respect for the families, CENTCOM will withhold additional information, including the identities of the fallen warriors, until 24 hours after the next of kin have been notified.

💯 this 👇 thank you @RepLuna 🇺🇸
The VA bill this Thursday needs serious changes. I will be signing the discharge petition to bring the Major Richard Star Act to the floor that will ensure it is voted on as a stand alone bill.
All our veterans who served should be fully eligible for disability pay and we should not be offsetting some disabilities to pay for others.
We need to find a way where all our veterans are fully taken care of.

54,000 combat injured/retired Veterans are waiting for that honor part, @HouseGOP. Pass the clean Major Richard Starr Act. Not the gaslighting version. Honor those who sacrificed for our freedoms.
Imagine waking up in the greatest country in human history, where people died for your freedom, and choosing grievance over gratitude.
Which side are you on? The one that loves America and honors those who fought for it, or the one that hates it?

🤔…. I support this message in honor of the more than 54k combat injured, medical retired Veterans. Stop acting like these sacrifice and hard earned benefits belong to YOU! Pass the clean #MajorRichardStarAct. Restore the full DOD military pay.

Today, on National Gun Violence Awareness Day, we remember those whose lives have been tragically cut short by gun violence and stand with the families and communities forever impacted by these losses. Together, we must continue working toward a safer future, one built on compassion, prevention, and unity. 🇺🇸

It's time our voices are heard!
The #MajorRichardStarAct would ensure that combat-injured retirees can receive both their Department of Defense retirement pay and the disability compensation earned through their sacrifices without any offset.
Our nation made a promise to those who sacrificed in service. It’s time to keep it.
Please urge Congressional support at our Action Center today: votervoice.net/AmericanLegio…

Over 200 Members of the House have joined our call to action, signing onto the Major Richard Star Act discharge petition. There should be no disagreement about whether combat-injured veterans deserve the full benefits they've earned. The time for change is now. Let's pass the Major Richard Star Act.
