A Deserving Widow’s Thanksgiving Just got Better
It’s hard to believe another year has almost came and went. Another year representing the best people America has to offer. For me, I still get that same sense of awe and wonder. The fact that I am allowed to represent so many fine Veterans, widows, and families, across the country, brings me so much joy. Each with a unique story. This Thanksgiving, I have been able to help make one wife’s Thanksgiving a little bit easier.

BVA Declares War on Most Severe Veterans
The best quality decision from the VA comes from the Board of Veterans’ Appeals. The downside? The wait time usually spans multiple years. To fix this, Congress allowed certain Veterans to ask for “advancement”, getting their case placed at the top of the line. Today, I will discuss the Board’s recent war on the bankrupt, dying, and seriously ill Veterans.

My wife and I sat in the back of an Uber headed to our hotel room in Washington, D.C. for the Fall NOVA Conference when we got word that Charlie had been shot. My stomach sank. I know hers did, too. While Charlie wasn’t a Veteran, he damn sure appreciated everyone of you that have taken up arms in defense of the Country he loved—the Country we all love. Charlie leaves behind a wife, beautiful young children, a business he built from the ground up, and so much more. More than anything, he leaves behind a legacy that tells us something—it tells us that this is the greatest damn Country this side of Heaven, and its still worth fighting for it.
