The President visited Kentucky to speak to more than 2,500 veterans attending the AMVETS national convention in Louisville yesterday.
President Trump discussed suicide prevention and access to health care, along with education and other issues of concern to veterans. He ended his speech by forgiving student debt for some of the most disabled veterans.
President Trump said the measure will help approximately 25,000 disabled veterans, each of whom has an average debt of about $30,000.
The President also headlined a Louisville fundraiser for Republican Gov. Matt Bevin’s reelection effort.
Bevin is running against Democratic state Attorney General Andy Beshear in what’s shaping up to be a close November election.
