Veterans are under attack. A draft dodger and a tech billionaire shouldn`t get to play politics with people who put their lives on the line for our country.
Yesterday, we heard from Michiganders who`ve been illegally fired due to Elon Musk and Trump`s purge of federal workers, including a Marine based in the VA hospital in Ann Arbor, helping veterans get the care they need.
