Republicans in the 111th Congress have stopped their support for Veterans - Las Vegas Democrat | Examiner.com

Republicans in the 111th Congress have stopped their support for Veterans - Las Vegas Democrat | Examiner.com

A new report recently released by the nonpartisan organization Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) shows that most of the Republican Party has given up on their promise to support our troops after they come home.

Abraham Lincoln once said, “ To Care for Him who shall have Borne the Battle, and for his Widow, and his Orphan”.

Now, Republicans say, to pass any legislation for our troops that the Democratic Party proposes can be seen as a Victory for the Democratic Party by American Voters, so we shall oppose any and all legislation in the name of Politics, in order to take back control of Congress. We shall become the “Party of No“, or as Sarah “Wink Wink” Palin says, “The Party of Hell no”.

The majority of the “Party of Hell No” Voted “No” to the following list of Legislation. Some pieces of Legislation Passed and some Failed, and some are still stuck in Committee. You can see how YOUR representatives grade and how they voted on each of these by clicking here.
