grandfather all veterans from any new policy or law that would reduce in any way their earned and promised benefits.

Veterans of all uniformed services have served the people of the United States of America. They endured hardships greater than and incomparable to any other public servant. The American people and the government of the United States owe veterans the benefits they were promised when they were sworn into service to ensure our way of life is protected. To erode these benefits in any way, even one small piece at a time, is breaking an oath and promise to those who have risked their lives and kept their oath to literally ensured the United States has survived 237 years! Every member of Congress must understand this is not debatable and veterans benefits are not the place to cut the budget. Veterans benefits should be maintained as long as there is a United States of America!
