FLINT— On Veterans Day, Congresswoman Kristen McDonald Rivet (MI-08) reminds veterans in mid-Michigan that her office is able to help them navigate issues with federal agencies, including the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), to ensure they receive the health care and benefits they are owed.
“Veterans have sacrificed so much for us and deserve all our gratitude.
