Sen. Hassan to host PACT Act info session

MANCHESTER, N.H. (WCAX) - Granite Staters exposed to burn pits are getting help as the PACT Act deadline approaches.

New Hampshire Sen. Maggie Hassan is holding a town hall to raise awareness and answer questions about the PACT Act, which makes sure all veterans exposed to toxic substances have VA health care benefits.

At the end of this month, open enrollment ends for post-9/11 combat veterans who were discharged more than 10 years ago and who are not enrolled in VA health care.

Hassan will be joined by VA representatives in Manchester Tuesday morning at 9:30 a.m.
