Here America, here is a handy list of all the programs that were designed to help our men and women in uniform that were blocked by our patriotic, “veteran-sporting” Republican friends:

H.R. 466 – Wounded Veteran Job Security Act became H. R. 2875, an act that provides the job security necessary for veterans who were receiving proper medical treatment for injuries they had sustained while fighting for us.

H.R. 1168 — Veterans Retraining Act

H.R. 1171 – Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program Reauthorization, an act which would have reauthorize programs in support of homeless veterans, to assist them with job training.

H.R. 1172 — Requiring List on VA Website of Organizations Providing Scholarships for Veterans

H.R. 1293 — Disabled Veterans Home Improvement and Structural Alteration Grant Increase Act of 2009

H.R. 1803 — Veterans Business Center Act

H.R. 2352 – Job Creation Through Entrepreneurship Act, an act would create a Veterans Business Center Program and a Military Entrepreneurs Program

These programs that they vetoed, they indeed speak volumes. The Republican rhetoric is meaningless since their actions speak louder than words.
