Now look at our returning veterans. they need our support. There is a New GI Bill stalled in the Senate. This bill will give our current veterans the same benefits given to WWII veterans. We need three more votes to prevent a filibuster by Sen McConnell. Call your senators and urge passage. Honor our heroes by honoring their service. McCain is the Key, Arizona residents, call and write him and urge him to vote yes.
