The VA secretary says he will recommend DoJ not appeal a court ruling, adding that 51,000 veterans are receiving treatment.

House and Senate leaders began another push for a "Blue Water Navy" bill on Agent Orange benefits that failed last year.

House lawmakers have reintroduced a bill to expand Agent Orange benefits.

Seven groups wrote the president, saying his support could push Congress to approve the legislation.
