Florida Veterans Deserve Better Than Darren Soto’s Shutdown

Democrat Darren Soto turned his back on America’s heroes. 

By voting to shut down the government, out of touch Democrat Darren Soto risked Florida’s 1,432,721 veterans’ access to critical programs they earned, from employment assistance to health care and support services. Veterans who fought for this country are being forced to fight Washington bureaucracy because Soto chose politics over people.

“Out of touch Democrat Darren Soto voted to turn his back on veterans, cutting them off from the benefits they earned and dishonoring their sacrifices. Democrats can’t be trusted to respect our heroes or taxpayers’ money.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
