AFL-CIO Building and Construction Trades Department President, Mark Ayers says that Senator John McCain has failed veterans in the U.S. Senate.

[Ayers]: “Not only has he voted the wrong way on veterans issues, such as opposing increased funding for veteran’s health care the last four years in a row, but he also doesn’t support middle class workers’ issues. As veterans, we respect Senator McCain’s military service to our country, but we don’t respect his record in the United States Senate.”
