Say yes to Ohio veterans

Say yes to Ohio veterans

EDITOR:

A proposed Ohio constitutional amendment from Ohio Attorney Richard Cordray was introduced to provide compensation to Ohio Veterans of the conflicts in the Persian Gulf, Afghanistan and Iraq. The Ohio House and Senate voted to place the amendment n the Nov. 3 ballot. You as a voter will have the final say.

In the past, Ohio has issued bonds through four separate voter-approved amendments to the Ohio state constitution to provide monetary compensation to its veterans of World Wars I and II, Korea, and Vietnam. Now is the time to provide the same consideration for our veterans who have served or are serving in the Persian Gulf, Afghanistan or Iraq. Through the sale of bonds we can offer a “bonus” for the great sacrifice of their service during a time of war. Please vote yes on Issue 1.
