Who Supports Our Troops?

Just in time for election day, the Iraq Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) has released its official rating for every member of Congress.

This scale will help American Voters determine how well their representative has or has not supported our fellow Americans who serve honorably in our armed forces. . Please visit this site before you vote.

"These new ratings are the first-ever comprehensive guide to your legislators' performance on issues that affect the lives of the newest generation of troops and veterans, and their families. We've counted every vote cast on IAVA issues for the last five years, crunched the numbers, and given every legislator a letter grade.

Did your Senator get an A or an F? Click here to find out.

Supporting the troops should mean more than wearing an American flag lapel pin. This is your chance to check your Senators' and Representatives' dedication to the troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan -- and to hold them accountable if their votes don't match their rhetoric."
- Paul Rieckhoff, IAVA President

Will America Lead?

I’m a little confused. I looked at your criteria for granting Senator Hutchinson a D+ grade. It seems to be based on her voting record on only three issues.

Surely this isn’t correct?

Looking further into this, I think I have discovered a pattern. It seems like every Republican I clicked on received a “D” or an “F”, but the Democrats all seem to be receiving either an “A’ or “B”.

Hummmm…

Maybe John Kerry was right; America’s veterans are stupid. Especially if they fall for something as amateurish as this seems to be.

Tell me is your organization really a veteran’s organization or just a front for the Democrats?

You're welcome. Please help spread the word about the IAVA. Our vets need all the help they can get.
