About the bill
This bill would create a Fort McClellan Health Registry to investigate the base’s contamination with warfare chemicals from 1952-1999 and subsequently diagnose and treat any affected veterans who served there.
From 1952 to 1999, Fort McClellan in Alabama was home to the Chemical Corps School (later the Army Chemical Center and School), which provided chemical warfare training. The facility contaminated the base with various toxins, nerve gas, pesticides, and Agent Orange. In addition, some veterans were heavily exposed to these substances through tests conducted by the chemical school.
