Issue Position: Veterans

Issue Position

As an Iraq war Veteran I'm proud to have served for the greatest nation on earth. The women and men that have sacrificed so much for our freedoms deserve the best.

Issue: Today we have many Wounded warriors that have paid the ultimate sacrifice and suffered physical and mental injuries. It's our duty to protect their rights, many veterans from past and current wars are still injured and waiting for assistance. With major cuts on the horizon it is important that we safeguard the ones who sacrificed for our freedom.

The young veterans in today's economy are seeing unemployment in the 20% range and uncertainty for the future.

Solution: Creating a solid budget and reducing the debt will grow the economy and help our hero's with employment.

I believe in making our veterans a priority instead of using them as a political pedestal to gain leverage for party politics.
