This effort aims to complement existing programs by promoting healing and reducing isolation among those who have served.

Asking vets to get outside is the kind of bipartisan boost we need—because mental health isn’t a political battlefield.

Finally, a bill that promotes self-reliance and the great outdoors instead of more government programs—now that’s freedom in action.
