Issue Position: Military and Veterans

Issue Position

Tina supports our troops.

Our service members and their families have made enormous sacrifices for our country and deserve our support in their transition back home. Tina works hard to support veterans. She serves on the Joint Committee on Military and Veterans Affairs and she sponsored legislation that requires further suicide assessment and treatment training by health professionals, including those who work with military members. The new training requirement will ensure that mental health professionals know the best practices to recognize suicide warning signs and interventions.

Tina also sponsored legislation to help counties streamline services for veterans and their families who lives in communities across our state.
