作为一项价值 9250 亿美元的国防法案的一部分，一项名为《FORGOTTEN 退伍军人法案》（S.2220） 的新法律已在参议院获得通过，该法案为 1951 年至 1992 年在内华达州试验和训练场服役的美国退伍军人创造了“有毒物质暴露推定”，那里发生了 900 多次核试验。 A new law, the FORGOTTEN Veterans Act (S.2220), has passed the Senate as part of a $925 billion defense bill, creating a "presumption of toxic exposure" for U.S. military veterans who served at Nevada’s Test and Training Range from 1951 to 1992, where over 900 nuclear tests occurred. 该立法旨在向退伍军人提供补偿和医疗服务,其中许多人患有严重的健康问题,如癌症和脑损伤,但因保密服务记录而无法获得福利。 The legislation aims to provide compensation and medical care to veterans, many of whom suffered severe health issues like cancer and brain damage, but were denied benefits due to classified service records. 它反映了能源部工作人员的福利,标志着在承认兵役期间辐照造成的健康损失方面迈出了一大步。 It mirrors benefits for Department of Energy workers and marks a major step toward recognizing the health toll of radiation exposure during military service. 该法案目前等待国会在众议院和参议院达成和解后最后批准。 The bill now awaits final approval by Congress after reconciliation between the House and Senate.
