Thanks DU with your help the Joshua Omvig Veterans Suicide Prevention Act is on the floor

[Monkeyman]

With you calls and emails this legislation is on the floor of the House. This bill will go a long way to prevent these kids from taken their own life's. Again this Veteran Wants to hug all of you.Now on to the Senate it has major support there and should pass.

Cost of living increase to Veterans and their family. Eye injuries will have adequate compensation. This shows by deeds who supports the Veterans and Troops

9. Wow!

That's got to be very gratifying to see it pass unanamously.

I'll tell my dad about this. He was a Corpsman attatched to Marines in Korea. He's been very upset about the Walter Reed mess. As have I.

Good job, Monkeyman and VVAW!
