As a veteran and having dealt with the VA system this is a cause that needs addressed.
Dear Congressman Filner,
1.5 million people have served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Almost one-third of them will have a serious mental health problem – like depression, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. That’s why I’m supporting IAVA and Drowning Pool’s “This is For the Soldiers” campaign to make sure the mental health needs of our troops are a top priority.
We know you’re a strong supporter of the troops. You co-sponsored the crucial Lane Evans bill, which would get veterans the counseling and support they need. But without your leadership, this bill will continue to just sit in committee.
We hope you’ll join us and bring this bill before the committee. With your help, we can get this bill moving and get troops the care they deserve.
