Do Your Reps REALLY Support the Troops?

Find out with IAVA Action's new Congressional Ratings

 
A Message from Paul Rieckhoff, Executive Director
Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America
 
 
Dear Friend,
 
Sure, your Senators and Representatives say they support the troops. But do their votes match their rhetoric? There's only one way to know for sure.

Click here to see your legislators' official IAVA Congressional Rating.

We've tallied up every Congressional vote cast on IAVA issues (from armor to VA funding) for the last five years, crunched the numbers, and given every legislator a letter grade - the IAVA Congressional Rating.

Did your Senator get an A or an F? Click here to find out.

Take Action! These new ratings are the first-ever comprehensive guide to your legislators' performance on issues that affect the lives of the newest generation of troops and veterans, and their families. We need your help to spread the word!

  • After you see your legislators' scores, use our email tool to say thank you - or to ask why your representatives haven't put their money where their mouth is.
  • Please forward this email to your friends and family, and let them know about this crucial new tool from IAVA Action.
  • Click here to download our new flier to spread the word in your community about the new scorecard.

As the war in Iraq continues to be the number one issue facing our country, it's more important than ever that Americans hold their representatives accountable for the choices in Washington that affect troops on the ground. Thanks for spreading the word.

Sincerely,

Paul Rieckhoff
Executive Director
Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America
