I'm started this petition to make people aware of how our veterans are being treated in the VA system and to get our goverment to make some well needed changes. Our soldiers are coming home with Posttramatic Stress Disorder and Tramtic Brain Injury from serving our country. These soldiers are being turned away, overmedicated and denied or made to wait really long periods of time for help. They fought for us now it is our turn to fight for them. Lets all stand together as a nation and get our veterans the help they deserve. Its our duty to protect them now..
The momentum is building fast. It is clear that this country refuses to look away from our veterans anymore.

Sick and tired of hearing about vets getting turned away. Fix the system already.

So many of these heroes are struggling on their own. They put their lives on the line for us and we just ignore them. Shameful.

The wait times are total bull. They need help yesterday not in a year.

THANK YOU FOR STARTING THIS. OUR VETS DESERVE MUCH BETTER THAN WHAT THEY ARE GETTING RIGHT NOW.

My brother waited 6 months just to talk to someone. This is a disgrace to every man and woman who served.

My uncle served two tours and the VA just throws pills at him instead of fixing the issue. We have to do better.

How 100% PTSD Veterans Lose Their Civil Rights
1. The Federal Civil‑Rights Gap
The strongest disability protections in America come from Title I of the ADA, which covers employment — hiring, firing, accommodations, and workplace discrimination. But once a veteran becomes too disabled to work, those protections no longer apply.
This creates the PTSD Protection GAP:
No ADA Title I protections (because the veteran is not employed).
ADA Title II (state/local government) is inconsistently applied
