Several veterans currently serving in Congress — from both sides of the aisle — joined together to wash the Vietnam War Memorial ahead of the Memorial Day holiday honoring fallen service-members.
CBS News’ “Face the Nation” shared video of the project on Sunday, showing several members of Congress who served in different branches of the military as they hand-washed the Vietnam Veterans Memorial on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.
“Democrat, Republican, black, white, brown, none of that matters,” Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) said. “It just matters that we’re all Americans.”
This Memorial Day weekend, a bipartisan group of veterans who serve in Congress hand-washed the Vietnam Veterans Memorial together.
“Democrat, Republican, Black, White, Brown, none of that matters. It just matters that we’re all Americans,” Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) said.
