President Obama signed into law the Wounded Warriors Federal Leave Act of 2015. This law provides disable Veterans that is 30% or more and gets hired with the federal government on or after November 05, 2016, gets 104 hours of leave for medical treatments. For the first year of employment. This law is awesome don't get me wrong; it is great for a select disable Veterans.

I would like to see this law be changed to include all disable Veterans to receive the 104 hours of leave every year. No matter if they work for the Federal government or for private companies. These Veterans should receive 104 hours of leave every year. Their disabilities are lifelong that they have to endure. These Veterans went to places in good health to protect our freedom and came back home with different types of disabilities. These Veterans should not have to use their annual or sick leave for a doctor appointment for their disability that was caused in service.

I am encouraging everyone to please sign this petition to have our government to look at this law and change it to include all disabled Veterans.
