Scott, Luria Urge the Navy to Appoint Psychological Health Directors

September 14, 2022 Press Release

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Representatives Bobby Scott (VA-03) and Elaine Luria (VA-02) sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro urging him to appoint a Director of Psychological Health at each Navy and Marine Corps installation. “There have been over 30,000 estimated deaths [of servicemembers and veterans] by suicide since 2001,” the letter states.“Each death is a tragedy and together they represent a widespread failing to properly treat, manage, and understand the mental health needs of America’s military personnel. This crisis requires decisive and immediate action, and few incidents demonstrate that urgency more than the recent string of suicides among sailors serving on USS George Washington in Newport News, Virginia.”
