Mark Souder and Brad Ellsworth announced this week their bi-partisan bill, “Veterans Travel Equity Act” that would increase the mileage reimbursement rate for veterans traveling to doctor appointments.
Souder’s press release: http://souder.house.gov/index.cfm?FuseAction=NewsCenter.PressReleases&ContentRecord_id=935247d2-19b9-b4b1-120f-4885726cfdbd&Region_id=&Issue_id=
Ellworth’s press release: http://www.ellsworth.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=344).
Rep. Souder belongs to a party that understand supply and demand basics and believes in drilling in America and drilling now to relieve our soaring gas prices, and this bill is simply another element of his broader agenda, and that’s fine. While I believe Rep. Ellsworth is a very smart man and understands and believes in the economic laws of supply and demand, his party does not, or at least selectively, and that begs this question for conservative Democrats:
When we you stop obsessing over band aids and get to work? Mike Pence knows what’s at stake here: we need to drill here, and drill now. (a) we increase supply and drive down prices; (b) we stop funding regimes that fund terrorists; (c) we improve our own economy by circulating those dollars domestically, (d) we improve Indiana’s economy because we have oil here too.
