I think it's wrong that the Secretary of Veterans Affairs can share info for background checks. Veterans deserve privacy and respect. Increasing disability compensation is a step in the right direction, but more needs to be done to support our veterans. The Smithsonian American Women's History Museum is important, but let's focus on helping veterans first. #SupportOurVeterans #RespectPrivacy #VeteransDeserveBetter
