Jon Stewart speaks at conference on Honoring Our PACT Act at Capitol
Veterans advocate Jon Stewart delivers impassioned remarks condemning Republican Senators for voting against the Honoring Our PACT Act, calling them cowards. The legislation would have established a connection between military service and exposure to toxins via burn pits, easing access to healthcare for veterans and active duty members. The bill passed the Senate with 84 votes, but Republican Senators objected, claiming it contained unrelated spending. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
