On the heels of the Supreme Court's refusal to hear an appeal by veterans who had sued the government over promised health care, the veterans' attorney has announced a new attack. The attorney, retired Air Force Col. Bud Day, a Medal of Honor recipient and former prisoner of war, said they are going to contact every member of the Florida delegation in the House and in the Senate and look for a commitment of support. Then they'll work their way through the states, he added. He was referring to some 23,000 members of the Class Act Group,founded to support and finance the lawsuit. Day expects assistance from Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who was a cellmate in a North Vietnamese prison camp during the Vietnam War. |
