Let's Address the True Cost of War…Now

Press Release

The only ones who are really paying for the wars we wage today are the service members who fight them and their families. For the rest of us we've put the expense on the national credit card to be paid by future generations. This means those in the future will have to come up with the resources to pay for the cost of caring for our veterans who've fought in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Today I asked my colleagues to join me in paying for our wars now so that we have the resource to take care of our veterans in the future. The Veterans Health Care Trust Fund bill will require everyone in this country to participate in paying for the full cost of our wars most importantly, taking care of our veterans& as we wage them. This will make going to war a burden that truly all of us share in.
