Sen. Cynthia Lummis from Wyoming voted against giving health care to veterans on Tuesday. Her excuse, much like Sen. Tuberville’s excuse, was that veterans may get other illnesses treated that weren’t caused by the burn pits.

“It is critical that we provide care for veterans who were exposed to toxic burn pits during their service. However, I am concerned about some of the illnesses, like hypertension also known as high blood pressure, that are currently listed as presumed to be caused by military service,” Lummis told K2 Radio in Wyoming.

Sen. Lummis’s phone number in Washington is 202-224-3424 or you can send a message using her online form.
