| Congressman
Kirk pioneered combining our North Chicago VA Medical Center with
a new naval hospital to be built at Great Lakes Naval Training Center.
With approval from Congress, this new facility will ensure that
our VA will never close and will be upgraded with state-of-the-art
equipment. Under the plan Kirk helped push through Congress, the
Navy will build a new $170 million extension to the North Chicago
VA, offering medical care for veterans and active duty personnel. |
