I think that is so important in a job like this one which is really about administration and about problem-solving and about getting things done on behalf of our veterans.
As a veteran, I don't feel like I needed to be rebooted, because I am concerned that word by itself may detract somewhat from the decision that our young men and women are making to serve their country.
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.
I am humbled and honored by President Barack Obama's nomination to lead the Department of Labor's Veterans' Employment and Training Service.
