Issue Position: Caring for Michigan's Veterans

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016
Issues: Veterans

Watching my son graduate from Marine boot camp was the proudest, yet most ambiguous time of my life. I was leaving my son in the care of the USMC at a time when the Obama administration was gutting our military, eliminating benefits and the VA hospitals neglect came to light in the media. I was not confident leaving my son behind - not knowing if his country would take care of him as much as he was volunteering to take care of his country.

We must make Michigan a welcoming place for our veterans to come home to. Taking care of our veterans through job placement and adequate health care should be our priority.
