Mike Michaud: “I'm looking forward to discussing with him his vision for reforming the VA.”

We are addressing the skill gap between veterans and employers who are seeking employees with industry-recognized credentials.

So we have a situation in our country where 22 veterans commit suicide everyday.

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.

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.
