As President Obama said veterans have done their duty and they ask nothing more than this country, does ours, that we uphold our sacred trust to all who have served, and we will.
Too many veterans wait too long to receive benefits they deserve. We know this is unacceptable...
a veteran, no matter where he or she lives, deserves to have access to the best health care we have in our system
The President fully supports veterans and their families, and by providing them the care and benefits they have earned, we pay tribute to the sacrifices that veterans have made for this Nation.
