Corporal Patrick D. Tillman VA Clinic

The House debated a bill to name the Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinic in San Jose, California, after Corporal Patrick D. Tillman. Members from both parties spoke in support, describing how Tillman left a professional football career to join the Army after September 11 and was killed in Afghanistan, and saying the naming would honor his service and sacrifice. The bill’s author, Representative Panetta, said the designation was about patriotism and passion for the country as well as the clinic’s name.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
