Issue Position: Caring for Veterans

Issue Position

The more we learn about abuses of veterans at the VA in Tomah and across the Veterans Affairs administration, the more we need to redouble efforts to care for those who have served. From providing education to those returning from service to providing for those suffering physical and emotional trauma, we need leadership to direct public and private resources toward funding sustainable care programs for our veterans.

Similarly, we need to incentivize businesses to hire veterans. Our servicemen and women have gained skills such as discipline, responsibility, and diligence through their service to this country -- all of which are transferable to the workplace. We need to make it easier for them to find work once they return to civilian life.
