Debbie Dingell: Support our veterans; they've earned it

We must ensure that our nation's veterans receive the support they earned by defending our nation. The recent problems at the Veterans Affairs Department must be addressed promptly and comprehensively, and our priority must be to ensure that veterans receive timely and quality health care.

Paul Mitchell: Cut government bloat elsewhere to build military

As your member of Congress these will be my priorities to support our armed forces:

Fight to reverse the Obama administration cuts to our military by finding savings elsewhere in the budget--we will start by cutting government bloat.
Work to support and advance the role of the National Guard in defending our freedom including protecting the A-10 mission flown by the 107th Fighter Squadron flown by the Michigan Air National Guard based at Selfridge.
Will support every effort to make certain that our troops have the best training and best equipment so that they can remain the most lethal fighting force in the world.
I will support the growth of the "Defense Corridor" in our district.
Our veterans earn their benefits through service and we need to live up to our commitment and deliver those benefits to them. I will work day and night to ensure that our benefits get the care they need and deserve.
