Our brave service men and women have put their lives on the line every day to defend our freedoms. They have done all that we have asked of them. They deserve leaders who will honor the sacrifices they and their families have made. Far too many veterans return home to empty promises. Supporting our veterans means cutting through the bureaucratic red tape that too often causes backlogs at the VA. And it means ensuring the GI Bill is fully-funded to provide returning veterans have the educational opportunities they need to succeed. We can and must do more to help our veterans find meaningful employment and a solid support structure after their service.
