VETERAN SERVICES GUIDEBOOK

There’s nothing more important than keeping our promise to the men and women who have served our country in the armed forces. But that promise doesn’t end when our nation’s heroes return home from battle. It’s something I take very seriously, and it’s why I’m fighting in Congress to make sure that America’s veterans have access to the benefits they’ve earned through their service.
