As the largest Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans organization in America, Vets for Freedom is proud to announce its support of Saxby Chambliss for United States Senate in Georgia. Senator Chambliss is and always has been a strong supporter of America’s Armed Forces. As an active member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Senator Chambliss has proven time and time again his unwavering dedication to protecting our nation, defending those who risk their lives for our freedom, and supporting all who have ever worn the uniform. His record speaks for itself – Co-Chairman of the Senate Reserve Caucus, member of the National Guard Caucus, recipient of the Arthur T. Marix Congressional Leadership Award by the Military Officers Association of America, recipient of the Harry S. Truman Award for Distinguished Service in Support of National Defense – the list goes on and on.
“As a proud Army veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, I am humbled to speak on behalf of over 30,000 members of Vets for Freedom in offering our strong endorsement of Saxby Chambliss for the United States Senate,” said Vets for Freedom Executive Director, Joel Arends. “Senator Chambliss understands that the fight we are currently undertaking in Iraq is essential to our success in the global fight against Islamic extremism. His six trips to Iraq allowed him to see firsthand the success of our current military strategy implemented by General Petraeus. He has been a steadfast source of support of all the men and women who are winning the Global War on Terror - our country needs more dedicated people like Saxby in Washington.”
Arends continued, “As the brave men and women who wear our nation’s uniform continue to achieve success in Iraq, Afghanistan and other battlefields of the Global War on Terror, it is crucial that politics ends at the water’s edge. Senator Chambliss will continue to stand by our Armed Forces, and we will continue to stand by him. I am proud to offer the support of Vets for Freedom.”
