Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-12) released the following statement in honor of Veterans Day.

“On Veterans Day we pause to salute the brave men and women who have served our country in the armed forces. Our veterans and their families have made incredible sacrifices to protect our freedom and our way of life. While we cannot ever repay them for their service and sacrifice, we must work together to ensure they have a smooth transition back into civilian life. Our veterans should never have to fight for a job, a home or quality health care when they come home. These are non-negotiable priorities.

“We have a moral obligation to our veterans, and my office is here to help and be a resource. I encourage any veteran who is experiencing problems cutting through red tape at a federal agency or receiving the benefits they’ve earned to contact my office. We are here to be your advocates and we will do everything in our power to solve any issues you may have.

“On Veterans Day, we renew our commitment to keep our solemn promise to our veterans – to serve them as well as they served us, today and every day.”

Veterans and their families from Michigan’s 12th District who need help with the VA or another federal agency are encouraged to call Dingell’s Dearborn office at (313) 278-2936.
