A Pledge To Our Veterans

The men and women who serve in the United States Military embody our country's finest qualities- honor, strength, compassion and a commitment to others. These values are brought to communities across Montana when the men and women who serve our country return home to civilian life. Our veterans strengthen our communities and our country. For their service and sacrifice, I would like to thank the men and women who have served our country.

We have a moral obligation to keep the promises our country has made to our veterans and our service men and women. That means making sure our Iraq and Afghanistan veterans suffering from PTSD have access to treatment. That means combating veterans unemployment and homelessness. That means ensuring female veterans have the same access to health care as any other American veteran. That means cutting down the claims backlog at the VA to make sure that our disabled veterans get the treatment they need.

As a Congressman, it would be a privilege to serve the men and women who serve our country. I pledge to always work for veterans and never take their service for granted. Thank you to all of our veterans for their service and commitment to our country.
