Over 100 Veterans Announce Support For Mac Collins
Today, Rep. Mac Collins, Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, announced 107 Veterans have joined the coalition dubbed "100+ Veterans for Mac."
Members include, Honorary Chairmen: Former Congressman and Secretary of the Army, Howard "Bo" Callaway and Ron Young, former Iraqi War POW, Chairman: General William Livsey (Ret.) and Vice-Chairman: CSM Eddie Roberts (Ret.).
"We are supporting Mac because we believe he is the best man for the job," the group said in a letter sent to Veterans across the State. "A seat in the U.S. Senate is a position of high honor and responsibility and we need individuals of strong character and integrity."
"Mac Collins fits that description. With the challenges facing our nation, we need Mac Collins in the U.S. Senate now, more than ever."
"I am humbled by the support of these fine men and women," said Collins.
This is just another example of the extensive grassroots support Mac Collins has.
As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, Collins led delegations to Iraq and Afghanistan in 2003. In 2004, Collins traveled to Vietnam to research and find additional information on missing POWs.
