Amendment adds the text of the SFC Heath Robinson Burn Pit Transparency Act, which requires the Department of the VA to document, track, and then notify Congress of specified data points to related to exposure cases as reported by veterans to the VA.

Amendment sought to replace the text of the bill with the Health Care for Burn Pit Veterans Act, which expands healthcare eligibility for certain combat veterans exposed to toxic substances to last for ten years after separation instead of five years, to require toxic exposure-related education and training for VA personnel, and to require screenings and studies to better identify potential associations between veteran medical conditions and toxic exposure.
