Servicemembers, Veterans, and Military Families
As a United States Air Force veteran, Congressman Davis knows elected officials must represent the needs of our servicemembers, veterans, and military families. He also understands the challenges faced by soldiers returning to civilian life and for military families both during and after their loved one’s deployment. Therefore, the Congressman is working hard to strengthen education, career training, health, and housing assistance for our service members, veterans, and their families.
North Carolina’s First Congressional District is home to eight times more veterans per capita than the nation. As a House Committee on Armed Services member, he will boldly advocate on behalf of our active service members because he understands the sacred obligation to care for those who serve and have served our country.
