The PACT Act is a law that expands VA health care and benefits for Veterans exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange, and other toxic substances. This law helps VA provide generations of Veterans—and their survivors—with the care and benefits they’ve earned and deserve. And as of March 5, 2024, VA expanded VA health care to millions of Veterans—years earlier than called for by the PACT Act. For more information, Veterans can visit www.va.gov/PACT.
