Veterans vote heavily Republican. Maybe it's time for them to stop doing that. This has been a problem since the 70s, the GOP does not give a shit about them. Why do they keep voting to keep them in power?

Thank you for your service. I have worked in mental health care and have first hand seen both the lack of funding for Vets, and the damage that Vets have endured....and continue to endure. It is shameful. This country should be ashamed of themselves. Whenever the Veterans come around and leave a notice for donations, I always do a sweep of the closets and house and put together some things for them.

Well said and thank you!

America legalized Cannabis Sativa to make equipment for the military during World War II. Watch the 1942 US Dept of Agriculture video, *Hemp for Victory.* Doing the same thing today will replace petrochemicals for plastic, and replace trees for paper and construction, reforming the global economy and reducing the amount of toxic plastic and synthetic materials that cause medical ailments from burn pits. Ford made a plastic car with hemp in 1941. There is video of it on KZfaq. The 2008 Lotus Eco Elise luxury British sports car was also made with hemp. The USDA reported in 1916 that one acre of hemp can make as much paper as four acres of trees. It was this report which prompted major timber and paper manufacturers at the time to begin a national smear campaign against the "Mexican demon weed, Marijuana" to turn public opinion against Cannabis. *Hemp for Victory* was hidden from the American voting public from 1945 to 1989 so that no one would question Cannabis prohibition or the war on drugs. It has been officially available from the US National Archives since 1990. There is an official .gov link to it on every cellphone, including those of every cop, lawyer, judge and Senator. There was a bill introduced in the US House of Representatives titled HR 3652, the *Hemp for Victory Act of 2019.* Everyone has heard of "Marijuana" and everyone has heard of World War II, so ask yourselves why you were never taught in school, college or anywhere in mass media that "Marihuana" was legalized and grown to win World War II. *Hemp for Victory* is the key to stopping climate change. If this had remained US Federal policy since the end of World War II, we wouldn't be dealing with climate change today. We wouldn't be waging wars in the Middle East for oil that we don't need. We wouldn't have toxic burn pits in a hopeless war in Afghanistan that our own government purposely designed to be as unwinnable as Vietnam. *Hemp for Victory* changes everything, and it just sits online at an official government website, day after day, for decades.

Veterans need to indicate their displeasure via votes. Let's face it, the amount of Republican voters in our military is higher than it should be considering how they are treated.

Amen sister! From another Army Mom❤️

Well, on paper at least. People still vote in representatives that block bills like this...

If our elected legislators don't serve the will of the people, then where does their service go? Could it be power and money? Could it be not having to work, and die, for a living? Could it be huge salaries, enormous discretionary budgets, 100% health care benefits, and all the other perks that they get, and that all Americans don't get, but deserve, too?

Democrats added 400 BILLION USD of PORK to the bill -- NOT related to veteran care -- if that wasn't part of it, the bill would pass.

And GOP senators _agreed_ to that to begin with. And if they were so fucking concerned about something being "snuck in," _maybe_ they should have considered sitting down to discuss it?

I have to disagree. We've had people like him calling out injustice for 22 years now. It's done NOTHING. We need people with the spine to take action to step into positions of power. Jelly spined centrist democrats can do nothing but wag their fingers. So republicans have learned that if they just stop pretending to be able to feel empathy and shame they can do whatever they want.

It's embarrassing that we literally have to SHAME our Politicians into doing the right thing for our Veterans. As for the GOP the Senate is considered to be the more "esteemed" Legislative branch and if these GOP Senators had a problem with the funding of this Bill they could have talked to their fellow Senators & worked out a compromise. Instead they are more interested in "Owning the Libs" and playing politics instead of legislating.
