Statement from Congressman Doc Hastings On Veterans Day

"Each year on November 11th we recognize the invaluable sacrifices our veterans have made to keep our nation safe and protect the freedoms and values upon which America was founded.

Veterans Day is a time to put aside whatever issues might otherwise divide us and honor those whose selfless service has protected the freedoms we all too often take for granted.

Throughout our history - and today - the American people steadfastly believe that freedom and our way of life is worth defending. As long as every generation continues to rise to its challenges and stand up in defense of liberty - as our veterans have done in the past, and as our troops do today - our nation will remain safe, free, and strong.

I am committed to working with my colleagues in Congress to ensure we keep our nation's commitment to our veterans. All our veterans and the brave men and women currently serving in uniform deserve our thanks and prayers not just on November 11, but everyday."
