Summary
Patriot Bill of Rights This bill modifies procedural requirements for veterans who file judicial claims for compensation related to their exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, between August 1, 1953, and December 31, 1987. Specifically, the bill requires veterans (or legal representatives of veterans) who file a judicial claim for compensation to sign a written acknowledgment indicating that they understand they may seek guidance and advice on any disability awards, payments, or benefits free of charge from their congressional representatives, veteran service organizations, and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
