FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
District of Columbia, District of Columbia, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) November 11, 2011 --

WASHINGTON, DC (November 11, 2011) – The Modern Whig Party of America is proud to announce this Veterans Day of its new Veterans Affairs Assistance Committee (VAAC). The VAAC of the Modern Whig Party exists to help Whig veteran members and veterans who are not members with veterans’ issues. The committee will organize the Modern Whig Party response to difficulties that veterans may be having with their benefits or any other veteran issues. The Committee will also help veterans’ families as well. The VAAC also is able to help active duty military as well as their families. Hubert Murray, the VAAC director, on working to help the military, “"I am full of excitement about this new task. This gives another option to solve inconvenient issues and reach out to help our service men and women."

The VAAC is made up of Whig members who are veterans or active duty and have experience dealing with the Department of Defense and Veterans Affairs. The committee will listen to requests for help on behalf of the Modern Whig Party and then recommend a course of action for the party to take. Andrew Evans, the Modern Whig chairman had this to say about the VAAC, “We do not promise anything but we will use our membership and media connections to bring pressure against those who are hindering our veterans, active duty military and their families in a way that is not right. The Modern Whigs are all about service and this is a way we can serve those who have served America.”

Established in 1833, the Whigs are one of America's oldest mainstream political parties. They were the original party of Abraham Lincoln and four other U.S. Presidents. Revived by Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, the grassroots movement has quickly attracted tens of thousands of members. The Whigs have been covered by CNN, Time magazine, and the Wall Street Journal. They represent moderate voters from all walks of life that focus on a methodological approach to issues working for the most effective solution over a strict ideological approach. This Washington, DC-based national movement values common sense, rational solutions ahead of ideology and partisan bickering.
