We are the forgotten generation of Gulf War Deployed Veterans and NonDeployed Gulf War Era Veterans, and family members that are suffering with illnesses defined by Gulf War Illness (GWI).

We collectively see areas for immediate change:
• Transparency from all agencies involved in Gulf War Illness
• All GWI research findings be declassified and shared with the public
• NonDeployed Gulf War Era Veterans need inclusion in presumption laws/research/treatment
• Registry/Network for ill Gulf War Era Veterans pre 9/11 through current conflict or until the war is declared closed by Congress
• Train VA practitioners to identify GWI
• All outside medical diagnoses and nexus letters should carry more consideration than the C&P exams
• FAST TRACK on claims and appeals with medically trained raters from 3rd party
• Uphold the benefit of a doubt clause
* Stop ignoring Part B of the unemployability regulation
• Repeal the quota system within the claims process
• Funded research into alternative medicine and its treatments
• Medical marijuana research funding for GWI treatment
• Financial assistance given to veterans awaiting claims decisions to help prevent the financial devastation that results from waiting 2-10 years for decisions

Improve and apply lessons learned from past practices and policies that can improve today’s programs and services supporting all Gulf War Era Veterans. We stand together in solidarity with all the lives lost due to death and disability.
