GOP/Republicans “…slashed more than $1.4 billion from President Obama's requested budget for American's Veterans.”

You have to STOP listening to those radio shows & FauxNews and check the facts yourself. It's not that Obama is raiding the VA Fund, it's that the House Appropriation Subcommittee marked up the 2016 Veterans Affairs funding bill and slashed more than $1.4 billion from President Obama's requested budget for American's Veterans.

"One child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world." - Malala Yousafzai

After being shot in the head on her way to school by Taliban forces, Malala Yousafzai has become one of the world's most prominent voices for the right to education. In a speech at the United Nations on July 12, 2013, she gave a stirring call for global education, as well as the fight against terrorism. At the time she was just 16 years old, and in years since has continued on her campaign and received a Nobel Peace Prize for her work.
