While many employers do the right thing and provide flexible schedules for disabled veterans, I felt that it was important to provide all disabled veterans with a solution that would help them have access to medical leave. Here's how our bill works: we accelerate the eligibility process for disabled veterans.

John Delaney

If you put it on the table as a bargaining chip, it becomes a bargaining chip

Ronald Reagan

It is unacceptable that disabled veterans in Illinois rank at the bottom of the list when it comes to disability pay. We owe our disabled veterans more than speeches, parades and monuments.

Dick Durbin

I have veterans in my family. But I didn't know anything about DAV, Disabled American Veterans.

Gary Sinise

Farm jobs are not a bargaining chip.

Doug Ford

Housing is a human right, not a bargaining chip to let fall between bureaucratic cracks.

Cori Bush

People understand the tremendous sacrifices that veterans have made - and they instinctively want to do something for them. And that sometimes leads people to give veterans an excuse: Oh, you didn't show up for work on time. It must be that you have posttraumatic stress disorder. Oh, you're disabled. Don't even try.

Eric Greitens

It is essential that we provide the best possible care for our wounded and disabled veterans.

Tom Udall

With my He's a 10 brand, I plan on donating to the disabled veterans that have given so much for our country.

Carolyn Aronson

Every movement ignores disabled people. So, during MeToo no one was talking about the experience of disabled women; during BLM the notion of black disabled people was just ignored and so in terms of comparison we need to have this movement for disabled people.

Rosie Jones

I do engage veterans. I meet with the veterans' service organizations monthly. It's a direct, no-holds-barred discussion. I travel to their conventions, where I speak to the veterans membership. I do travel. I've been to all 50 states. When I do, I engage veterans locally. So I get direct feedback from those veterans.

Eric Shinseki

The FREED Vets Act will make student debt forgiveness for eligible disabled veterans automatic, both now and in the future.

Conor Lamb

I've led programs that have helped thousands of individuals, small businesses, veterans, the disabled, farmers get low-interest loans to prosper.

Raja Krishnamoorthi

Romney still enjoys the Republicans' traditional advantage among voters who are veterans, but the Obama campaign is confident it can chip away at that.

Mara Liasson

Although we can never fully repay our veterans, on Veterans Day we thank our veterans for their selflessness and commit to do what we can to improve the quality of life for our veterans and military families in communities across America.

Elizabeth Esty

I think a person who is disabled should be disabled by no act of their own. If you become disabled because of alcoholism, drugs, or things of that nature, I do not think those conditions qualify someone to be called disabled. I think those conditions result from personal decisions.

Jesse Ventura
