Trump to Veterans, Military Families: We Have to Do More and Working to Do More

‘We will soon have the greatest and most prepared force, military force anywhere in the history of our country, by far’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: “But we have to do more and we're working to do more. We will be working with every state and local leader. So many of you are here and around the nation to improve vital mental health services for America’s great veterans. This is a top priority for my administration. Has been, as I said, from the beginning. Always will be. Until we get it right, and we’re getting close, and once we get it right we’re going to keep it right, because it can go bad just as fast as we fixed it. So we’re going to keep it right. Pretty soon that’s what we’re going to be working on, Mr. Secretary, just keeping it right. We're getting to a point. Another crucial element of our veterans agenda is improved access to education. Last year I signed legislation to allow every veteran to use their G.I. Bill education benefits at any point in their lives. And earlier this year I signed an executive order to promote military spouse hiring across the federal government. Military families are the backbone of our nation. So in addition to everything else, as you see, I did the promotion of military spouse hiring across the federal government. The fact is, I have done a lot.”
