Military holds a special place in fabric of American society
Today, we Americans enjoy the protection of the greatest military force ever assembled. We continue to attract into our armed services the very best young men and women who sacrifice so much to make sure we are safe. My father was a veteran.
I am a veteran and my son and daughter-in-law are veterans. The military holds a special place in my life and in the fabric of American society.
I was honored to have served this nation and will, as a Senator, work tirelessly to ensure our military forces have the best equipment & training available.Today, we face a staggering economy. Through the ill-conceived sequestration apparatus in place
today, we are taking half of the required spending cuts out of the Department of Defense. There is little we can do about the sequestration structure now, but as a Senator, I would fight to make sure that our military readiness received top priority.
