Veterans should never have to struggle for the care and stability they earned. That means making sure they can see a doctor when they need one, get timely mental health and addiction services, and access job training and placement that values the skills they brought home from service. I will work to expand access to mental health care, strengthen partnerships with local employers, and support housing and community programs that keep veterans and their families on solid ground. As the wife of a veteran, I’ve seen both the pride and the challenges that come after service, and I know we honor their sacrifices by actually showing up for them; in our laws, our budgets, and our communities.
