The 11 Republican Senators who voted against the PACT Act shared messages of support for veterans Friday.

on Twitter Friday is a day to"honor those who have sacrificed so much to protect the freedoms we hold dear."

"While Senator Lummis believes it is critical that we care for veterans who were exposed to toxic burn pits during their service, she could not support this bill because of the price tag and illnesses included," a spokesperson for Lummis told Wyoming news outlet Cowboy State Daily at the time."Let us not forget the brave sacrifice 19 million Americans – nearly 120,000 of whom are Idahoans – have made to defend our freedoms.

"However, the scope and cost of this bill is astronomical and unjustified. At a total cost of $667 billion, it would add hundreds of billions of dollars to the national debt and would represent a dramatic expansion of qualifying conditions that aren't necessarily service-connected disabilities."
