1. My mom and dad, married 61 years. Both raised in the coalfields of #WV. My dad is LTC-USA (RET), served in #Vietnam, and is 100% VA disabled. My mom raised 3 daughters pretty much by herself!
2. My son, pictured here with his father. He served in the #USArmy, and due to his service, is 100% VA disabled. (He suffers from #PTSD and thus, #depression, and, sadly, #addiction.)
3. My daughter, here with me at her bridal shower. She's an elementary school #teacher, and works 12-hour days, making sure her students get the very best education possible.
Will she be forced to tell her students they can't say Merry Christmas?
4. My 3 grandsons. Two are courtesy of my son and his wife, and the other belongs to my daughter and her husband.
As future American men, they deserve a country where they can carry a gun, voice their opinions, and make a decent living.
5. I want a government that works for my family, not the other way around.
