Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of National Veterans and Military Families Month. Last week, I joined communities across Wake County to celebrate Veterans Day, a time when we honor the courageous men and women of our Armed Forces who put their lives on the line to defend our democracy. As the proud daughter of an Air Force veteran, I know that behind every servicemember is a family making sacrifices every day. But thanking our veterans and their families is simply not enough. We must recommit ourselves to providing them with the care and benefits they have earned. We, in North Carolina, support our veterans. Just last week, Raleigh, in my district, was named the best place in the country for veterans to live. Mr. Speaker, let's strive to make every community an incredible place for our veterans to call home. ____________________
