Bigger HT to Sen. Al Franken

From the press release:

The Service Dogs for Veterans Act was the first piece of legislation introduced by Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.). It will establish a pilot program and study within the Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA) to provide disabled veterans with service dogs to help keep America’s promise to returning soldiers and improve their quality of life after service.
