Air Force members being stripped of their benefits is wrong

To: Sen. Merkley, Pres. Trump, Rep. Bynum, Sen. Wyden

From: A verified voter in Redmond, OR

August 10

The trans Air Force members who have served our country for 15 years deserve their retirement benefits. They have already indicated that they will leave the military voluntarily to avoid being forced out. They have earned a pension. They have paid into the system. They deserve what they worked for not to be thrown away like garbage. However you feel about trans people doesn’t matter. They are humans who dedicated a large portion of their lives to serving their country and their lives matter. This country owes them for all the years of service that they dedicated their lives to. They should be allowed to have a life after leaving the Air Force by forced early retirement. They are good human beings and citizens of this country.
