Sewell Issues Statement in Observance of Veterans Day | 2015-11-11 | 2015 | 2015-11 | Democrat | House | AL | Terri Sewell | S001185 | sewell.house.gov | legacy | Today, Congresswoman Terri Sewell (D-AL) released the following statement in commemoration of Veterans Day: Today we salute the selfless sacrifices of our nation's 21 million veterans. These patriots have kept our nation safe while defending our nation at home and abroad. They have served our country with distinction, and we should honor them for their bravery and courage with actions -- not simply words. Congress must continue to support and provide critical resources to the Veterans Administration (VA) to ensure that our veterans have access to quality health care, good-paying jobs, affordable housing, and opportunities to continue their education. We should not deny the very liberties they fought to protect, nor deny them any benefits they so fittingly deserve. I am committed to ensuring that we honor the promises that were made to these American heroes. Today, we reaffirm our commitment to them and their families by vowing to make sure they succeed. They deserve nothing less. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
