Two Republican congressmen have introduced legislation that would provide the same employment and economic protections to Americans serving in the Israeli military as US citizens who get deployed to serve in the US military.
The bill, if passed, would amend US law and extend certain protections to include American citizens who serve in the Israeli military.
Those protections include being safe against foreclosure and the repossession of rental property, and would also reduce the interest rates of any loans taken out before their service. It would also protect those Americans from default judgements in legal cases, and grant them job rights and the employment benefits that US veterans receive.
American here: Shit, I’d like to see our own veterans get the care and benefits they’re supposed to be entitled to.
Some vets have been getting screwed over for literal decades after being forced to kill, suffer injury, psychological damage, lose good friends, and regularly risk death all supposedly for our country.
Veteran here. Yep. I am pretty alright I guess, but I don’t have the time or energy to fight for all the shit I should have gotten. Fuck that. It breaks my shriveled little heart to watch people I served with having to fight tooth and nail to get a new fucking prosthetic because theirs broke and being held together by duct tape, only to have their new one break walking through the damn parking lot on the way out of the VA.
Sorry that happened to you and your friends, that shit isn’t right.
Appreciate it. You’re right, it’s not right. The most fucked up part is the prosthetic is for his leg that he lost IN THE FUCKING WAR.
This right here
