Congressman Chris Smith just Betrayed the Veterans, Again.

Congressman Smith Voted for the Ryan Budget.  Another slight to our war heroes and veterans.   House GOP leaders knew that the pension changes would impact wounded warriors days before the first vote on the budget deal. Amazingly, there was no attempt in the House to change this provision.  http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/12/18/Senate-Votes-for-Ryan-Murray-Budget-That-Cuts-Veteran-Pensions Smith has turned his back on Veterans, again.   When Smith voted for the Goverenment Shutdown,  kin of dead soldiers were left without money for funerals

 http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/shutdown-leaves-kin-dead-soldiers-burial-funds-article-1.1480080#ixzz307ZKQslB Poor leadership and poor government.  A betrayal to the men and women that served this country.  
Remember to thank Congressman Smith in November!
