Issue Position: National Defense and Veterans

Issue Position

Every day, another young man or woman goes into harm's way to protect our freedoms. But we must do more -- much more -- to ensure our national defense and to serve and honor our veterans. We must challenge the administration's questionable answers to important questions. It does matter how and why four Americans died in Benghazi despite prior warnings and the victims' pleas for help. We do need to know exactly how much the U.S. Justice Department has expanded, in an unprecedented fashion and to an unprecedented degree, the government intrusion on our First Amendment rights. We must secure our borders and stop illegal immigration. Finally, we must step up to the plate and do the right thing for the veterans of our country and their families by being a strong advocate for constituents' VA benefits and ensuring top-quality services at VA hospitals and nursing homes.
