Issue Position: Veterans

Issue Position

Veterans care for our Nation's hero's is a top priority. Georgia has one of the largest veteran populations in the county and we need to make sure that they have the support and resources that they need. Everyday veterans struggle with issues such as transitioning to civilian life to working through alcohol/drug problems and PTSD. Just recently the VA has made strides in authorizing veterans to see outside medical providers. However, more work needs to be done so that our veterans can get the treatment they need in a reasonable amount of time. Many of my family members including myself have served our country. This experience gives me insight into the issues facing our local veterans.
