camp lejeune justice act

---

Military personnel who served at Camp Lejeune from 1953 to 1987 were exposed to contaminated water, resulting in multiple deadly illnesses. An estimated five hundred thousand to one million veterans and family members have been affected by water from wells that were contaminated over a 60-year period. This bill prohibits the U.S. government from asserting specified immunity from litigation in response to such a lawsuit and allows individuals to sue and recover damages for harm from exposure.

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers a presumption of service connection for veterans, reservists, and National Guard members who lived at Camp Lejeune during the prescribed period who are diagnosed with any of the following eight diseases:

• Adult leukemia
• Aplastic anemia and other myelodysplastic syndromes
• Bladder cancer
• Kidney cancer
• Liver cancer
• Multiple myeloma
• Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
• Parkinson’s disease

If you lived at Camp Lejeune while the water was contaminated and you have become ill, you deserve substantial compensation. Contact your local VA and get started. They're there to help you.
