Rep. Bilirakis Applauds House Passage of Military Construction and Veterans Appropriations Bill

June 1, 2012

"Our nation's servicemembers embody the American spirit that has forged a better future for our nation's children and grandchildren. We must never forget what they have given to preserve the freedom that we enjoy. Our veterans served our country honorably and nobly, and we must ensure they have access to resources to keep them healthy and provide them with training and services to pursue meaningful careers after their service."

The bipartisan bill was approved overwhelmingly with a 407-12 vote.
