HM 71 Recognizing Veteran Suicide SPONSOR(S): Willhite, Smith D
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STAFF ANALYSIS BILL #: HM 71 Recognizing Veteran Suicide SPONSOR(S): Willhite, Smith D. and others TIED BILLS: IDEN./SIM. BILLS: REFERENCE ACTION ANALYST STAFF DIRECTOR or BUDGET/POLICY CHIEF 1) Local Administration & Veterans Affairs 16 Y, 0 N Renner Miller Subcommittee 2) State Affairs Committee Renner Williamson SUMMARY ANALYSIS Since 2008, the number of veteran suicides has exceeded 6,300 each year. Many risk factors may affect veteran suicide rates including economic disparities, homelessness, and health issues such as traumatic stress disorder and substance abuse disorder. In 2007, the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) developed a comprehensive program designed to reduce the incidence of suicide among veterans and launched the Veterans Crisis Line, a program that connects veterans and current servicemembers in crisis and their families and friends with information from qualified responders through a confidential toll-free hotline, online chat, and text messaging service. The VA partners with hundreds of organizations, both at the local and national level to raise awareness of the VA’s suicide prevention resources and to educate people about how they can support veterans and servicemembers in their communities. The VA also partners with community mental health providers to expand the network of local treatment resources available to veterans. The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) is the largest integrated health care system in the United States. Although the VA emphasizes mental health care for veterans, many veterans do not reach out to the VA for help. Most use local hospitals and health clinics. However, community health providers are not prepared to address the needs of veterans.

Figure 1. Regional Location Map
Figure 1. Regional Location Map - 2 - INTRODUCTION SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF THE PLAN The updated San Ysidro Community Plan (Plan) is a comprehensive revision of the original plan adopted in 1974 and includes the urbanized portion of the Tijuana River Valley. The update was authorized at the City Council budget hearings of July 1987 and work on the project began in December of that year. The Planning Department, with the assistance of the San Ysidro Planning and Development Group, has studied San Ysidro’s major issues and challenges and has developed alternative solutions to realize the community’s potential. Included in the Plan is a set of recommendations based upon those alternative solutions to guide the development and the redevelopment of the San Ysidro community. Formal adoption of the revised Plan requires that the Planning Commission and City Council follow the same procedure of holding public hearings as was followed in adopting the original community plan. Adoption of the Plan also requires an amendment of the Progress Guide and General Plan (General Plan) for the City, which will occur at the first regularly scheduled General Plan amendment hearing following adoption of this Plan. Once the Plan is adopted, any amendments, additions or deletions will require that the Planning Commission and City Council follow City Council Policy 600-35 regarding the procedure for Plan amendments. Although this Plan sets forth procedures for implementation, it does not establish new regulations or legislation, nor does it rezone property. The rezoning and design controls recommended in the Plan will be enacted concurrently with Plan adoption.

Union Army Pensions and Civil War Records
This PDF is a selection from an out-of-print volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research Volume Title: The Evolution of Retirement: An American Economic History, 1880-1990 Volume Author/Editor: Dora L. Costa Volume Publisher: University of Chicago Press Volume ISBN: 0-226-11608-5 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/cost98-1 Publication Date: January 1998 Chapter Title: Appendix A: Union Army Pensions and Civil War Records Chapter Author: Dora L. Costa Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c6116 Chapter pages in book: (p. 197 - 212) Appendix A: Union Army Pensions and Civil War Records Real data is messy. Tom Stoppard, Arcadia The scope of the Union anny pension program, run for the benefit of veterans and their dependent children and widows, came to be enormous. What had begun as a program to provide for severely wounded veterans became the first general disability and old-age pension program in the United States. The pro- gram was generous both in the level of benefits and in its coverage. The average pension paid to Union anny veterans from 1866 to 1912 replaced about 30 percent of the income of an unskilled laborer, making the Union army pension program as generous as Social Security retirement benefits today. The total number of beneficiaries collecting a pension was slightly more than 100,000 in 1866 but reached a peak of almost 1 million in 1902. By 1900 21 percent of all white males age fifty-five or older were on the pension rolls, and the program that had consumed a mere 3 percent of all federal government expen- ditures in 1866 consumed almost 30 percent.
