Fuel Prices and Travel Pay for Veterans
I have been making some phone calls this morning to the Senators in my area and this is what I told them I would like to see done for Veterans and travel pay.
I said that the gas prices are ridiculus and I would like to see travel pay for Veterans go up to at least 60cents a mile and everytime the gas prices are increased the travel pay would autimatically be increased . I told them that if the Veterans Affairs employees were able to go and spend billions on the government credit card then they have the money for my request. Plus there are a lot of Veterans that may not be able to take the van and due to not having money to gas this will be hard for them to keep their appointments at the VA.
If y'all agree with me then please forward it on to everyone you know and let's work on this together. I can't do it alone. I need y'all with me on this.
Thanks,
Marnie Mowles
