            COMPACT OF FREE ASSOCIATION VETERANS REVIEW ACT

  Mr. SCHATZ. Mr. President, due to a clerical error, the senior 
Senator from Alaska, Ms. Murkowski, was not added as an original 
cosponsor and co-lead of the Compact of Free Association Veterans 
Review Act when we introduced the bill together on April 29, 2019. 
Senator Murkowski has been a tireless advocate of veterans from the 
Compact States and a strong partner in our effort to expand Department 
of Veterans Affairs care to those veterans still living in the 
Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, 
and Republic of Palau. I thank her for her partnership to fulfill our 
commitment to provide veterans everywhere with the access to high-
quality care they have earned and deserve. Thank you.
