Issue Position: A Secure Nation and Supporting our Veterans

Issue Position

Ensuring the safety of all Americans is the most solemn duty of the federal government. Our nation's commitment to our men and women in uniform, and their families, must never waver. Working on behalf of our veterans and service members is one of my top priorities. I also believe our military must have the best equipment and support possible -- before, during and after their deployment.

I coauthored the Military Voting Protection Act to strengthen the voting rights of troops overseas, secured key funding for the Minnesota National Guard returning home, addressed payment inequities for our soldiers and their families, and continue to aid numerous veterans in getting the assistance they deserve.
