MY SAY: PAY TRIBUTE TO THE VETERANS IN THE 114TH CONGRESS

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/pay-tribute-to-the-veterans-in-the-114th-congress?f=must_reads

Monday May 30, 2016 is Memorial Day when we honor veterans.

In this season of political partisanship and rancor we at Family Security Matters would like to pay tribute to members of the 114th Congress who have served in the military.

 All legislators are willing to take a ballot for America. That’s democracy.

The following is a list of legislators in the Senate and the House of Representatives who were willing to take a bullet for our great nation.

Democrats are in italics for purposes of identification. To all we offer our gratitude for their service.
