Every day I was reminded of what made our country the greatest in the world: the sacrifice of our warriors.
I greatly appreciate that we are all partners in promoting opportunities for veterans and in protecting their rights.
This has strong support from key veterans groups, like the VFW and The American Legion.
We continue to work to end homelessness among our veterans by providing services that help them establish a stable, long-term employment.
