Dear friend,

Our veterans and their families have given so much in service of this country. It’s our job to show them support and gratitude.

WATCH: A Veterans Day message from Congressman Carey

In Congress, we’re hard at work to make sure that our veterans have access to the benefits and assistance they deserve. For example, many OH-15 veterans that contact our office are frustrated with a hard-to-navigate VA and labyrinthian record systems.

That’s why we cosponsored the Senator Elizabeth Dole 21st Century Veterans Healthcare and Benefits Improvement Act, which passed the House last year. The bill will expand home and community veterans’ programs and support the family caregivers of disabled veterans.

We also cosponsored the Department of Veterans Affairs Electronic Health Record Modernization Improvement Act, which will ensure that any electronic record system adopted by the VA is up to the task of providing top-tier medical care to veterans and their families.

We’re also here to help. If you or a loved one needs help claiming unreceived benefits, requesting service medals, or navigating the VA, you can contact our office at carey.house.gov or by calling 614-927-6902.

To my fellow veterans: today and every day, thank you.

Sincerely,

Rep. Mike Carey signature
