Fighting for veterans 

Ultimately, how a nation cares for their veterans is a reflection of their respect for their service. We should never provide Congress with better healthcare and other benefits than we offer our military families. 

We made a promise to those men and women who serve our country that if they protect us, we will protect them. We must honor our commitment by ensuring that they get the health care they deserve.  

In Congress, I will fight to bring a full service VA Hospital to New Hampshire. 

In Congress, I will: (1) fight so that veterans can have a combined choice approach to health care so that they can receive care in a VA hospital if necessary or in civilian medical facilities when appropriate or preferred; (2) introduce legislation that requires Representatives and Senators receive no greater benefit package than is offered to our courageous defenders of freedom; and (3) work to modernize the GI Bill to provide additional incentives to serve and to give our military the compensation they deserve.
