WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 – Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) issued the following statement today ahead of Veterans Day.

“Today, we honor the sacrifice of our nation’s veterans and their families. The truth is that we can never repay the debt that we owe to those men and women who put their lives on the line to defend our country. Our commitment to care for our veterans must extend to every day of the year – not just Veterans Day. We have a moral obligation to keep our promise to provide for the wounded and their families and ensure that all veterans receive every benefit they have earned and deserve.”
