Throughout our history, United States’ veterans have bravely stood watch, keeping our country safe and protecting the liberties we hold dear. As Americans, we live in a free and safe society because of their valiant efforts and extraordinary sacrifices. For the brave acts of patriotism from those who have served our nation, we owe a debt we can never fully repay. “This week I am lucky to be spending time with Rhode Island veterans around the state to salute their service and sacrifice — yesterday I joined with students at the Community College of Rhode Island in Lincoln to honor their peers who have served and today I joined with veterans and constituents for ceremonies in Woonsocket and Cumberland, and heard female soldiers share their experiences at a luncheon in their honor hosted by Operation Stand Down Rhode Island. Our troop, veterans, and their families deserve our utmost gratitude and deep respect, and we must ensure they are provided for with the exceptional care and benefits they have earned defending our great nation. I will continue to fight in Congress to fulfill the obligations our government has promised to those who have served, and I want to offer my humblest gratitude to the veterans in Rhode Island and around the nation for their service.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
