Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022

The Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022, signed on August 10, 2022, is a bipartisan bill intended to ensure that individuals – veterans, their family members, or other individuals living or working at the base between 1953 and 1987 – who were harmed by water contamination at Camp Lejeune receive fair compensation. Many of these individuals have had their claims inappropriately denied or delayed, resulting in additional harm.

Part of this Bill is called the Honoring Our PACT Act of 2022, which passed in the U.S. House of Representatives on March 4, 2022. The Act permits people who worked, lived, or were exposed in-utero to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987 to file a claim in U.S. federal court.

People or loved ones of those who lived worked, or were stationed at Camp Lejeune and who experienced a water toxicity-related illness may be eligible for compensation.

What does Camp Lejeune Justice Act Do?

This legislation removes legal barriers, unfairly denying Camp Lejeune families their day in court. Signed on August 10, 2022, individuals can file lawsuits in the Eastern District of North Carolina.

Senator Tillis, who is a member of the Senate Veterans Affairs and Judiciary Committees, co-sponsored The Janey Ensminger Act in 2019 to provide VA medical care for Marines and their families who have been exposed to toxic water at Camp Lejeune. The Camp Lejeune Justice Act gives those families and individuals the same opportunity to pursue compensation in court that other U.S. citizens are guaranteed.

Our attorneys have a history of standing with veterans whose lives and rights have been trampled by corporate greed. Believing it is unacceptable for those who fight for our country to be treated with indifference or worse when it comes to their most basic health and safety.
