Happy 251st Birthday to @USNavy! Thank you to all of the sailors who protected our nation’s freedom since 1775 and continue to today. Forged by the Sea!

“The only true threat to earned benefits is continued inaction, where combat-injured retirees keep losing pay they have earned, caregivers cannot return to the workforce, and survivors struggle to rebuild their lives without full and fair compensation for their service member’s sacrifice.” – Lt. Gen. Brian T. Kelly, USAF (Ret.).
Veterans, their families, their caregivers and their survivors cannot continue to wait for the care they have earned and deserve. Congress must keep its promise by passing the Take Care of America's Veterans Act.
