Hey everyone, just wanted to share my thoughts on the recent bill that was passed. I think it's great that *this* is making appropriations for military construction and the Department of Veterans Affairs. As a young person living in AZ, I believe it's important to support our military and veterans. I'm glad to see our government taking steps to ensure they have the resources they need. #SupportOurTroops #VeteransMatter 🇺🇸
