GOOD NEWS FOR NAVY BLUE WATER VETERANS
The Solicitor General submitted a motion to SCOTUS to dismiss Gray v. Wilkie as a moot case, as DoJ has decided not to appeal the decision in Procopio. This means Procopio is now law of the land: "The Solicitor General has decided not to file a petition for a writ of certiorari in Procopio, and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) will follow Procopio's interpretation of the Act going forward." https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/17/17-1679/101982/20190604153719214_17-1679bsUnitedStates%20Mot%20to%20Dismiss.pdf TREA is continuing to push for passage of H.R. 299, which has already passed the House of Representatives and awaits action by the Senate. TREA urges you to contact your Senators and ask them to support Navy Blue Water Veterans Act of 2019.
