On the recordNovember 15, 2016
On Friday, I was grateful to give the Republican Weekly Address to honor Veterans Day, where I spoke about how House Republicans, under the leadership of Speaker Paul Ryan, are committed to providing our Nation's veterans the highest quality of care. As the son of a World War II Flying Tiger, a 31-year veteran myself, and the grateful dad of four sons who have served overseas in the global war on terrorism, I appreciate the positive work of House Republicans to reform the Department of Veterans Affairs. Veterans Affairs Chairman Jeff Miller has been a determined advocate for veterans and military families, leading efforts to modernize the VA and deliver 21st century health care. The House has also passed a series of reforms to the VA itself. I look forward to working with President-elect Donald Trump, Vice President-elect Mike Pence, and Speaker Paul Ryan, to create a positive change of culture at the VA to give veterans the care they deserve. Chairman Jeff Miller would be an excellent choice for Secretary of Veterans Affairs. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and may the President, by his actions, never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
