The fiscal cliff issue require our legislators and President Obama to take action. We the undersigned, urge our legislators to not reduce veteran benefits and keep them in line with the cost of living. Veteran benefits should be considered as a "lock box" and viewed as an "untouchable" benefit due to the special sacrifice and dedication of our past volunteer-forces. We demand that congress and President Obama work harder to locate other reductions and tax increases. This petition will be sent to President Obama, the House and Senate Veteran Affairs Committee members and leaders.
