Subject: Request to Support Extending PACT and Camp Lejeune Justice Act Rights to US Veterans stationed at Camp Pendleton, MCAS (H) Tustin, MCAS El Toro, and all West Coast Military Bases
Dear [Congressman/Senator’s Last Name],
I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to express my strong support for the extension of PACT (Preventing All Cancers Together) and the Camp Lejeune Justice Act rights to the honorable veterans who were stationed at Camp Pendleton, MCAS (H) Tustin, MCAS El Toro, and all other West Coast military bases. Additionally, I stand in solidarity with the goals of Michael Ehline, Esq. and the Paul Ehline Memorial Motorcycle Ride, which has been instrumental in advocating for the rights and welfare of military personnel. This bill’s proposed title is the “Save West Coast Vets With Cancer Act.”
As an engaged citizen and a passionate advocate for the rights and well-being of our brave servicemen and servicewomen, I believe it is of utmost importance to recognize the sacrifices made by veterans who served at Camp Pendleton, MCAS (H) Tustin, MCAS El Toro, and other West Coast military bases. These individuals have dedicated their lives to protecting our nation’s values and deserve our unwavering support.
The extension of PACT and the Camp Lejeune Justice Act rights would provide vital assistance and care to veterans who have been affected by exposure to hazardous substances during their service. These brave men and women, who have already given so much to our country, deserve access to comprehensive healthcare, financial support, and justice for the adverse health conditions they may have developed as a result of their service.
I urge you to proactively advocate for the extension of these crucial rights to all veterans stationed at Camp Pendleton, MCAS (H) Tustin, MCAS El Toro, and all West Coast military bases. By supporting this measure, you would honor the sacrifices made by these courageous individuals and ensure that they receive the necessary resources and support they need to lead healthy and fulfilling lives after their military service.
Furthermore, I wholeheartedly support the goals of volunteer attorney Michael Ehline, Esq. and the non-profit Paul Ehline Memorial Motorcycle Ride, which has been instrumental in raising awareness about the challenges faced by veterans and advocating for their rights. Their commitment to justice and their unwavering dedication to improving the lives of veterans is truly commendable.
I kindly request that you work towards introducing or supporting legislation that would extend PACT and Camp Lejeune Justice Act rights to the deserving veterans of Camp Pendleton, MCAS (H) Tustin, MCAS El Toro, and all West Coast military bases. By doing so, you would be providing a beacon of hope and support to those who have served our nation selflessly.
Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I appreciate your efforts to represent the interests of your constituents and support our honorable veterans. I trust that you will consider my request with the utmost seriousness it deserves. I look forward to hearing about your actions in support of this vital cause.
Yours sincerely,
[Your Name]
