Mr. Speaker, this Memorial Day, I rise to remember and honor our brave servicemen and servicewomen who made the ultimate sacrifice answering the call to defend our great Nation. Whether it is the men and women who helped us gain our independence from the British throne in the Revolutionary War or the men and women who fought bravely against Japanese imperialism, we owe all of these men and women a debt of gratitude.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today in strong support of the Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act. I am proud to represent El Paso County and the 100,000 veterans and Active-Duty servicemembers who live there. These heroes committed their lives in service to the Nation and in protection of our Constitution. They served with the promise that when their military career ended, the VA would be there to provide the benefits they earned and to advocate for their best interests. Unfortunately, as we all know, too often, the VA fails in this mission.
