Consider Veterans When You Vote

It’s an election year, and multiple bills affecting #veterans will be coming to a vote in the next months. The Major Richard Star Act finally reached a 218-signature trigger to force a vote; veteran service organizations have pushed for the bill’s passage for years, but the House went into recess before voting. “Combat-injured veterans shouldn’t have to choose between the retirement they earned and the disability compensation they’re owed,” said Mark Takano (D-CA) in a statement. “The time for that debate is over. The only person standing between these veterans and their money is Speaker Johnson, and he’s out of excuses.” #VeteransVote
