Veterans' Healthcare Threatened - per IAVA
Edited on Wed Oct-07-09 11:25 AM by OneGrassRoot

(posted 10/7 at Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America website)


"This could be one of the most important phone calls you make this year. Last week, the Senate failed to pass the VA budget, and six million veterans who rely on the VA for healthcare are paying the price. All passing the budget takes is one vote - the Senate just hasn't gotten around to it. Now, VA hospitals and clinics nationwide can't plan for critical staffing and equipment needs, leading to longer waits for appointments, and rationed care. This is completely unacceptable."

1. WTF, not good for the Veterans
The war funding bill was just passed today, but they couldn't vote for the Veterans, WHY?

Give a good reason for this treason against the Americans who've fought for this country, these Representatives are not looking out for Americans or America.

NO More Corporate Welfare!

NO MAS, enough with the WARS, NO MAS, cut the WAR Funding, bring the troops Home!
