Biden admin restores police escorts for veterans visiting DC with Honor Flight
Fox News
Police escorts for veterans visiting Washington, D.C., on Honor Flight trips will resume after Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, and a host of officials called the National Park Service to ensure that visiting servicemen receive "full experience they have earned."
"Having witnessed many first hand, these escorts are one of the few good things that the federal government facilitates; we shouldn't screw it up," Roy told Fox News Digital in an exclusive statement. Roy spearheaded a congressional effort in April with 75 members of Congress calling on Interior Secretary Deb Haaland to resume the escorts.
"I'm happy that the administration has finally come to its senses and realized that as well. Bottom line, veterans put their lives on the line to keep this republic free, and they deserve to be treated accordingly when they visit our nation's capital," Roy said.
