Dan Crenshaw in CNN "State of the Union" interviews during 2018


On Homeland Security: What veterans need is a clear mission & resources to do it

Q: President Trump said that he should have gone to Arlington National Cemetery on Veterans Day, but he was busy making calls, doing things for the country. Does it matter to you?

REPRESENTATIVE-ELECT CHRISSY HOULAHAN (D-PA-6): : I think it's important that our commander in chief respect the veterans and the people who have served our country so fundamentally.

REPRESENTATIVE-ELECT DAN CRENSHAW (R-TX-2): : I have been to Arlington multiple times to bury my friends. I have had least two funerals there that I have attended and gone back occasionally. I also know that the president on a personal level has treated those Gold Star families very well. I would have liked to see him at Arlington. But, as veterans, what affects us is, listen, are you giving us a clear mission? Are you giving us the equipment we need to do it? Are you raising pay for the military? He's done all of these things. That's what matters to me as a veteran.
