A Camp Lejeune water contamination survivor has expressed renewed hope following a visit by First Lady Melania Trump and Second Lady Usha Vance, who visited the base as part of their first official joint trip. The visit came amidst decades of cancer battles for families affected by the toxic water, which was contaminated from 1953 to 1987, impacting over one million people. Despite the passage of the Camp Lejeune Justice Act in 2022, only 900 of over 400,000 claims have been resolved, highlighting ongoing government delays and negligence.
