WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) – lead Republican on the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee – recently met with Disabled American Veterans (DAV) and received the DAV’s Veterans Champion Award, presented to a veterans advocate who is committed to serving veterans, their families and survivors. When presenting the advocacy award, DAV cited Sen. Moran’s significant contributions to improve the lives of veterans and their families while serving in both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives.
“Senator Jerry Moran has illustrated an unmatched commitment to fighting for the best interests of veterans and their families,” said DAV National Commander Andy Marshall. “Veterans are a nonpartisan issue, and he has worked tirelessly to ensure our nation keeps its promises to our nation’s heroes.”
“It is a pleasure knowing that Senator Moran has a genuine interest and concern for veterans and their caregivers, and because of the vigor he has shown over the years, it was decided by our national organization to award the senator with the Champion Award, one of the highest awards given by the Disabled American Veterans to a civilian,” said Kansas DAV Junior Vice Commander Ron Boykins. “In closing, it was a very interesting and positive visit, with the hope of continued communication with your office and the department of Kansas.”
