The American Gulf War Veterans Association and Captain Joyce Riley are providing support for Michael New while advocating for veterans suffering from Gulf War illness. Many veterans report being told by the Veterans Administration and medical doctors that their physical symptoms are psychological, despite the severity of the disease. Daniel New highlights the importance of Riley's work in addressing government dishonesty regarding veteran health issues.

Captain Joyce Riley and the American Gulf War Veterans Association hosted a fundraiser at the Silver Eagle Tap House to address the medical crisis of Gulf War illness. The event aimed to support veterans who are suffering from debilitating diseases that the Veterans Administration and some medical professionals have dismissed as psychological. Daniel New attended the event to show solidarity, noting that the government has historically lied to veterans regarding their health risks.
