President Joe Biden has said he “refuses to repeat the mistakes” from the Vietnam War and Agent Orange as he called on Congress to pass legislation to support US veterans who are sick and dying after being exposed to burn pits.
The president told the veteran community “we owe you” and vowed to “do better” in providing returning service men and women with access to the healthcare and benefits that they need, as he spoke at the Tarrant County Resource Connection in Fort Worth, Texas, on Tuesday afternoon.
