Honoring California's Veterans
 
  • Sponsored informational rallies to educate students about Vietnam War-related
    curriculum, titled "Echoes from the Wall," which is being distributed by
    Jan Scruggs (Founder of the Vietnam Wall) and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial
    Fund (VVMF).
  • Joined with Kinko's and the VVMF to promote a statewide campaign with the operators
    of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial to fill the "Virtual Wall" with photos of
    Californians who gave their lives in Vietnam.  The "Virtual Wall" is a Web
    site that will ultimately contain the pictures of every veteran whose name appears
    on the Vietnam Wall.
  • Sponsored legislation to assist in the construction and operation of
    transitional homeless facilities to house and re-train the thousands of California
    veterans who go homeless every night.
  • Initiated "Operation Serving America" with Boston Market and other partners
    in 2001 to feed a Thanksgiving meal to more than 1,000 California National
    Guard troops stationed at airports after the September 11th terrorist attacks.
