A bipartisan bill would create a new, nationally recognized day aimed at helping fight the tragedy of veteran suicide.
A new bill being introduced Wednesday by Reps. Derrick Van Orden, R-Wis., and Derek Kilmer, D-Wash., would recognize the Sunday after Veterans Day as National Warrior Call Day. Americans would be encouraged to mark the day by calling a current or former member of the Armed Forces to "have an honest conversation, and connect them with support," according to bill text previewed by Fox News Digital.
