Issue Position: Support Veterans

Issue Position

As a Vietnam veteran, I know how important veterans are to the fabric of our state and the value they bring to our local economy. Veterans who have fought to defend our country should not have to fight to be treated with the respect that they deserve and to receive the benefits that they were promised. With the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Vermonters have been called to serve our nation many times and it's important that we stand by our veterans when they return home. Unemployment among veterans is too high in Vermont and we need to ensure that our heroes have help finding well-paying jobs right here in Vermont.
