2018 MA Senate race: on Homeland Security


Allen Waters: Congress needs to act on the shameful treatment of veterans

There are few things more shameful in America than the sorry state of Veterans Affairs from the waste, fraud and abuse, to the seemingly never ending news of poor treatment of the men and women who have served us in the Armed Forces. America belongs to the people, and it is time for our elected politicians in Congress to do the business of the people and clean up the swamp of poorly managed government departments like VA.

Shiva Ayyadurai: Deliver services that our vets need and have been denied

We must fast track and deliver those services that our vets need and have been wrongfully denied. We treat illegal immigrants better than our own veterans.
