We need to act now to get The Veterans Restorative Justice Act - SF 33 Passed
- 7/18/2020
Department of Minnesota VFW District 7 Legislative Officer Martin Adams
VFW Members and VFW Auxiliary Members, time is of the essence -- we need your action now!
We need two phone calls made. The calls takes a little over a minute to make, so you can do this in five minutes or less. A link to find your state senator and representative is in the comments. After you make the calls, comment "done!” Here’s what your local State Senator and State Representative need to hear; more info on this is in the comments also:
***
Good _(morning/afternoon)_, Senator / Representative ______.
My name is ________ from ___(town)___and I belong to VFW Post #___ / Auxiliary #___ in _____.
The justice a veteran receives should not be dependent on a county line. The Veterans Restorative Justice Act - SF 33 (if calling your Senator) HF 31 (if calling your Representative) – fixes this. It helps veterans in Greater Minnesota and saves taxpayers millions. It can pass on Monday with your help and leadership. Please insist that Senate / House takes a yea or nay, up or down vote on Monday.
The best time to help Veterans is yesterday. The next best time is Monday by passing this bill. The best time to save taxpayer money is yesterday. The next best time is Monday by passing this bill.
Please insist this bill gets a stand alone vote on Monday. Don’t let Leadership kick the can down the road by putting it in a big bill for a vote next special session, a month or more or maybe even never. There may not be another special session. Get it done now!
I’m ___(name)___ , a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars / VFW Auxiliary, and my phone number is _____. Thank you.

Please make these two calls and make them now. Let’s make sure their voicemail boxes are full on Monday Morning!
That from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause
for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here
highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this
nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government
of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the
earth. - President Abraham Lincoln
A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, rivers, and woods, but it is a principle and patriotism is loyalty to that principle.

In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
We are sorry to say that we will NOT have a fish fry this year.
