Veterans Day is a time to reflect upon the great sacrifices that our men and women in uniform have made and continue to make to protect our country and preserve our freedom. It is also an opportunity to renew our promise to America’s veterans and help them build their American Dream. Our commitment to our troops must not end with their tour of duty.
As a member of the United States Senate I have worked hard to ensure that both our active soldiers and our veterans receive the resources and services they deserve. I will continue to support measures that honor our veterans, and I will fight to provide better health care, retirement benefits and educational opportunities for our nation’s heroes. I join all Arkansans in thanking our veterans for their courage, valor, and service to our country, and may they remain in our thoughts and prayers throughout the year.
