Mike Michaud: “What VA owes our veterans and our taxpayers, in that order, is a timely, transparent, accurate, and honest account about…”

And so our bill, the PAWS Act, takes these veterans, particularly the ones that have severe Post-Traumatic Stress, and authorizes a small amount of funding so that the VA can pair them with specially trained service dogs.

We see a decline in opioid use. We see a decline in suicide. And I think that is obviously good for the veteran.

VETS is committed to reducing veterans' unemployment nationally by helping each veteran through individual services.

I greatly appreciate that we are all partners in promoting opportunities for veterans and in protecting their rights.
