Letter From a Veteran About Rick Santorum

Senator Santorum obviously looks out for himself but doesn’t care about men and women who defend this nation.

(SALEM) - I am a veteran and feel I have the right to write this letter. Senator Santorum served in the U.S. Senate for sixteen years. He is now retired and receives 100% of his senator salary as a pension.

He was a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, the group who decides military pay and pensions. As a senator, Rick Santorum voted to raise his pay and pension to over $14,000 per month while deciding to compensate veterans wounded and disabled in defense of this nation less than $3,000 per month.

What heroic act did Senator Santorum do where he considers he deserves over $11,000 per month ($132,000 per year) more than soldiers wounded in battle?

Senator Santorum obviously looks out for himself but doesn’t care about men and women who defend this nation.
