America’s servicemembers put their lives on the line to protect this country. It’s our duty to ensure they receive the honor they deserve. That’s why I am a proud cosponsor of the #PurpleHeartCoinAct, so we can raise the revenue needed to honor all of our Purple Heart recipients. pic.twitter.com/oLp0l8oaNJ
