Last week, the Senate voted overwhelmingly in favor of Senator Jim Webb’s New GI Bill by a 75 to 22 vote. The New GI Bill would help veterans keep up with skyrocketing tuition costs and pay for a quality education after they return from service.
Already, our WesPAC community has sent over 15,000 emails to our Senators, urging them to support the New GI Bill. However, there is still one roadblock that threatens to undo our progress and prevent our veterans from receiving the education benefits they deserve. President Bush has threatened to veto the bill, and we are going to need a two-thirds majority in the Senate to override his veto.
VoteVets, Brave New Films, and WesPAC have pushed for the New GI Bill with TV ads, op-eds in major newspapers, and online petitions for weeks. With pressure continuing to build on John McCain and President Bush to support the New GI Bill, our grassroots efforts have clearly paid off.
But we still need your help to overcome the last hurdle in providing our men and women in uniform with the tools they need to obtain a quality education.
Thank you for your support. Our troops have given everything that has been asked of them, and together we can ensure that their service is honored when they come home.
Sincerely,

Wes Clark
