Hello.
2:24:50
My name is Sharon Brown from Rose of Sharon Enterprises.
2:24:55
Before I begin, remember the hostages, release the hostages, let Yahweh's people go, defend Israel.
2:25:04
Okay.
2:25:06
The veteran budget should be one of the highest budgets there are going into this budget season.
2:25:14
They defend and defended the nation and the nations around the world.
2:25:20
When our veterans were fighting and our military fight, everyone is safe around the world because of what they do.
2:25:29
They should not have a problem with housing, they should not have a problem with businesses, they should not have a problem getting permits and things to sell on the streets and things like that, but they should actually be considered first for business.
2:25:49
We need to have veterans first where we're considering veterans first for things.
2:25:55
They should be considered for housing.
2:25:57
They should go from street directly into homes without all of the red tape, all of the qualifications, and they shouldn't have any qualifications as far as having to be in any kind of mental health program.
2:26:13
They need to get directly into housing.
2:26:16
They shouldn't stop in some kind of program.
2:26:19
Whatever they want to do, not are forced to do, whatever they want to do with themselves, they can do it from their own homes, homes and apartments.
2:26:31
Apartments.
2:26:31
We need our military homeless to be in houses.
2:26:36
This is a very important situation.
2:26:39
I can no longer stand to see veterans being abused.
2:26:45
Cold War veterans, it's obscene that any veteran is not considered a veteran and they are not first for funding.
2:26:55
Let's take care of our military and our veterans because they have taken care of us.
