Veterans

As a veteran of the United States Navy, Al is deeply committed to fighting for the protection of Oklahoma’s veterans.

During the 2008 session of the Oklahoma Legislature a bill was introduced to create the Oklahoma Veterans Health Insurance Program. This program would have ensured that all veterans had access to quality health care when they returned home to Oklahoma. Unfortunately Al’s republican colleagues in the House of Representatives chose to derail the popular proposal that would have greatly benefited Oklahoma’s veterans.

Al believes we should spare no expense when it comes to caring for the men and women who have so bravely fought for our freedom and security.
