When I met John Weigel, a veteran, at a town hall a few months ago, he had $139,000 in medical debt and was contemplating taking his own life. Today we reconnected in Carson City. I am so happy that after working with his senators and our office, we were able to rectify his situation and he is doing much better.
As a nation we can disagree about a war, we can disagree about foreign policy. But when brave people like John put their lives on the line to defend our country, when they come home, they must receive the best quality health care this country can provide them.
