Support Our Troops - Get Them Counseling!
No matter what is going on in Washington, and in our homes, we need to remember that men and women suffer and will continue to suffer the trauma the War in Iraq has wraught.
I just received the following email from the Iraq Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA).
"Dear IAVA Supporter,
A few days ago, we told you about the 2007 IAVA Legislative Agenda, which gives Congress 31 actions they can take to really support troops and veterans. Now, we need your help to make it work.
Senators Olympia Snowe (R-ME) and Barack Obama (D-IL) have introduced S117, the Lane Evans Act, which would address one of IAVA's Legislative Priorities: establishing mandatory mental health screenings for all returning combat veterans.
This bill would ensure ALL our troops get the counseling they need when they return home from war. The Lane Evans Act has bipartisan support -- but to get it moving, you need to let your legislators in Washington know that you stand behind it." (more)
