If you want to help, please call your Senator and send them this release regarding the SEC. 8006 COVID–19 VETERAN RAPID RETRAINING ASSISTANCE PROGRAM by Sens. Tester and Moran. In a $2 TRILLION bill, they can help veterans.

This would nearly immediately be very impactful for thousands of veteran families. They can do this.

I'm certainly in favor of this Veterans Economic Recovery Act, but until we have more public transparency about what is bundled into these HUGE spending pork-filled packages we can expect well-reasoned opposition. The Vet Job Retraining should certainly stay, but the unrelated big-time pork needs to be reallocated to the canned-beans industry.
