What this bill would do

This bill is known as the Warrior Impact from Neurological and G-Force Stress Act or the WINGS Act. It directs the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to conduct a comprehensive study on the long-term physiological and psychological effects on military aviation veterans. The study will look at brain health, mental health, and the connection between flight hours and injuries like traumatic brain injuries. The Secretary must also establish a centralized Military Aviator Neurohealth Registry to track health data over time. Finally, the Secretary is required to submit an interim report within one year and a final report within three years to Congress.
