Letter to the Editor: Saco representative a friend to Veterans

Representative Donna Bailey helped me file legislation to make state Veterans benefits consistent throughout Maine law. Clearing this up, will ensure Veterans get the full range of benefits they are owed without worrying that state law doesn’t align with Federal law.

As someone who served two tours of duty in Iraq, this effort means a lot to me and Veterans in our community. In addition, Donna voted for successful legislation that allocated funding for transitional housing to homeless Veterans. She also supported efforts to ensure Veterans can access VA medical care by
mandating leave for employees for doctor’s appointments.

Donna Bailey has my full support in her bid for State Senate and I know she will continue to champion our Vets.
