Update from Blue Water Navy Awareness
Supporting Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act
House: 334
Senate: 45
This is NOT a Political Post, this is a Veterans Issue.
I know it has been a long time since I have provided an
update and I am sorry for that. We have had more Members of Congress sign onto
to support the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act. We now have 334 Members of
the House and 45 Members of the Senate supporting the bills. These are good
number and we are working hard on getting more support in the Senate so we can
get it over the 50% mark. However there are two Members of Congress that are
holding back the Bills. We have Congressman Jeff Miller, who is the Chairman of
the House Veterans Affairs Committee and Senator Johnny
Isakson who is the Chairman of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee.
We have almost 77% of the
House and 45% of the Senate supporting the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act
yet two Members of Congress are using their power to prevent the Bills from
going to the floor of Congress for a vote.
We are asking everyone to
help us in Contacting these two and requesting that they allow the Bills to be
sent to the Floor for an vote. Also we are still asking everyone to Contact
their own Members of Congress and ask them to Contact the Veterans Affairs
Committee and ask them to bring the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act to a
vote.
We at Blue Water Navy
Awareness on Facebook are still working hard to get these two Bills passed.
Weekly we are asking all our Members to Contact specific Members of Congress so
we can put Respectful pressure on them. So far we believe it has worked. In the
last year there have been over 100 House Members signed on and 31 Senate
Members. We would love to get the Number of Senators up above 66. Please help
use, we are asking not only for ourselves but for all the Other Blue Water Navy
Vietnam Veterans that are suffering from the effect of Agent Orange.
These two Bills are not the
only thing we work on, but it is what we are focusing on.
