U.S. Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) — Statement on Veterans Day
WASHINGTON – Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), a Marine combat veteran and member of the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, released the following statement on Veterans Day:
“Generations of Arizonans have stepped up to defend our democracy, our freedoms, and our way of life. Veterans Day is a chance to reflect on that service and honor our soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, and all those who have served, especially those who never made it home.
“As we remember their service, we must recommit ourselves to serving our veterans and servicemembers with the same respect and honor as they have served us. That means protecting the benefits and care our veterans have rightfully earned, ensuring access to high-quality health care, and strengthening the Department of Veterans Affairs, not cutting it.
“As a Marine and combat veteran, I had the honor of serving alongside some of the most dedicated men I’ve ever known. We owe it to them, and to everyone who has ever worn the uniform, to make sure no veteran ever falls through the cracks. I’ll never stop working to fulfill that promise to our veterans and their families.”
