I’m a Gulf War I Veteran and an independent registered voter, so I am hella pissed that people have the audacity to attack veterans and our voting rights — especially a woman.   As such, Veterans and military dependents need to call out these Republicans.

Tammy Duckworth is now facing $2 million in attack ads from outside right wing groups, and more is coming.

We really need to step up for Tammy.  A Veteran and a patriot of her caliber deserves much better treatment from conservative groups, but, unfortunately, they’ve decided to take this campaign into the gutter.

We need to step up for Tammy, right now.  The airwaves are being flooded to tilt the race to the man who denigrated her service, time and time again.

HELP TAMMY DUCKWORTH FIGHT BACK
