WASHINGTON, DC – Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 671, the Ruth Moore Act, by a voice vote. Introduced by Rep. Chellie Pingree (ME-01), the Ruth Moore Act aims to spur reform of the evidentiary standards for survivors of military sexual trauma (MST) who file claims for mental health conditions with the Department of Veterans Affairs. The ultimate goal of the bill is to make it easier for veteran sexual-assault victims to receive service-connected benefits and treatment for mental-health conditions linked to MST.
