Richard Tisei on Homeland Security

Middlesex & Essex Republican (MA Senate)

 


Ensure that veterans have resources available

It is unacceptable that 1 of every 5 homeless people in Massachusetts today is a veteran. When I served in the State Senate I sponsored and passed a law that established "veteran's preference" for state-owned housing in Massachusetts.

I will work to repeal cuts to veterans pension benefits passed by Congress and signed by President Obama. There is simply no excuse for trying to balance our budget on the backs of those who have given the most. I hope Congress does the right thing and fixes this cut immediately.

I will continue working to ensure that veterans have resources available to help find housing, training, and employment.
