HOPE YOUR 4TH OF JULY WAS GREAT!
There are those among us/U.S. who have always held
the service of our Brothers and Sisters in Arms, in the highest regard. Even those among us/U.S., who
have not served, realize the sacrifice, dedication, and commitment, of those who have. Our country has been the inspiration
of freedom, thru out the world. We have inspired not just with our Words, but with our Actions as well. From our words in
the Constitution, to the Promises of Freedom on the Stature of Liberty, the "FULLFILLMENT" has come from the
Blood, Courage, and Suffering, of our Armed Men and Women in Service. It has come from the Passion to Live Free, and to let
people Live Free. Those in service, who have given all, for so many,
often receive so little in return. They also "ask" for so little in return. Our soldiers have fought for all of
what we have won. They have fought, so that all we have won, is never lost. Many have given so much of themselves for
our Win, they have Lost themselves in the process. The strangers who fought, and Lost all they have, just so We
can keep all of what We have been given, have no one to fight for Them. The saddest part is this. Just as it
cost you nothing when they sacrificed all they had for you, it will cost you nothing once again to help them! Why is
that sad? Because not enough of us/U.S. are supporting H.R. 147. Not enough of us/U.S. are aware of H.R.
147. As a matter of fact, some in Congress are even opposed to this legislation. This legislation is a check off on your annual 1040 tax return form. It allows
$3.00 to go toward helping those who have Lost themselves fighting for all we have Won. The bill does not affect your
tax liability. It simply offers you the right, to direct where some of your Tax Dollars are spent. The passage of H.R.
147 will provide $500,000,000.00 per year for our National Heroes. This will benefit the 154,000 to 190,000 homeless
veterans within the Borders of the United States. This bill was introduced on January 6th, 2009 to the 111th Congress
by Rep. Steve Israel 2nd CD N. Y. and Co-Sponsored by Rep. Peter King 3rd CD N. Y. It needs your support to pass. I
have always believed that if you have the opportunity to do a little, and it will help a lot, you are Morally
and Spiritually bound to do so. We can not allow this National Disgrace to continue. We are them and they are us/U.S. Call
your Representatives and Demand that they support H.R. 147. WILLIAM J. WAHLSTEEN 7/14/10
