Brought to you by the fine folks at The Progressive Electorate
Despite passing the GI Bill, our Congress still has a lot of work to do in terms of providing better support for our veterans. For example, a recent study shows a discrepancy in health care at VA Hospitals between men and women veterans. We also are not properly paying attention to mental health related issues.
Many of those 22 that voted against the GI Bill weeks ago, are up for reelection. In the spirit of unity for our troops we must not allow those who voted against this bill to get a free pass because they were pressured to sign the legislation.
It doesn’t matter what the pundits think, we must go after each of these seats. There has never been an election like this one and every race is in play.
Donate $1.01, $5.01, $10.01, $14.01 or whatever you can afford today. It will not go unnoticed. We can raise thousands of dollars this cycle for those that support veterans issues. Please help us reach our goal today.

TX-Sen (Map)

John Cornyn is terrible for Vets, Rick knows the issues of veterans inside and out. Rick supports increasing educational benefits for veterans as well as better health care for male and female veterans. .

Vivian Figures

AL-Sen (Map)

Jeff Sessions has one of the most conservative records in the Senate and votes with Bush lock step.
I ask for the support with this race. State Senator Figures needs the support of the net and bloggers in this race. We have noticed an increase of interest in this race and hope for that to continue.
