I just worry that we send too many veterans out of the system because the wait times are not calculated really accurately.
This trend not only impacts the mission-readiness of our forces but also the quality of life of servicemembers and their families.
Well, gosh, Private Calderon, since you have only been here a year and we have engaged in passage of the Tenant Bill of Rights and implementation of it, it is disturbing that you wouldn't have at least seen some--at least, if not noticed…

And that problem is further exacerbated when the interests of private monopolists are put ahead of American families.
This corporate consolidation hurts all of our families, but especially lower income workers.
These were funds that were a lifeline for many citrus producers in Florida that have been on the frontlines of experiencing the damaging effects of climate change.
