The Independent: ‘You just sentenced veterans to death’: Democrats and veterans outraged as GOP senators block burn pits bill (July 28, 2022)
John — When I was stationed in Iraq, this was my view:
I lived near an open-air burn pit. Smoke filled the air all the time — and I had to run through it. So to all the Republicans like Josh Hawley and Roy Blunt who decided to screw veterans like me today…
F**k you. Every last one of you.
These same Republican politicians voted time after time to keep people like me and my buddies fighting their pointless overseas wars, wasting trillions of dollars while their defense contractor donors got rich. But now when it comes time to take care of those of us who served, we're suddenly broke. It's just criminal.
BS like this is exactly why I'm running for Senate. I'm tired of corrupt politicians just ripping everything away from us — our healthcare, our rights, even our lives.
Missouri can do better than Josh Halwey and Roy Blunt. If you’re with me, please chip in $10 to my grassroots campaign right now so we can stand up to these criminal politicians, flip this seat, and elect a real warrior for everyday people to the U.S. Senate.

Anyone saying we can't afford to invest in healthcare for our veterans is a liar.
When I’m in the U.S. Senate, you’ll always know I’m fighting for real, everyday Americans — that’s why I don’t take a cent of corporate PAC money and don’t pull any punches when it comes to taking on defense contractors, Wall Street, the fossil fuel industry OR their corrupt allies in Congress.
Together, we’re building a people-powered movement so we can invest in our own people and our own communities — not the wealthy elites who are stripping us for parts.
Thank you for being part of it,
Lucas
