We, the American people and honored veterans are outraged by the senseless closure of our national war memorials. We understand that many of these memorials are open 24 hours per day, seven days per week with little or no staffing and were paid for with tax payer funds.

We have a right to visit these sacred places and pay respects to those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

We are outraged that our Vets have had to "storm" their own war memorials - monuments that were already paid for with their blood, sweat and tears.

Our memorials are supposed to be places of peaceful, solemn reflection. They should not be places that our veterans have to fight to enter.

We demand that the memorials be re-opened, and that Congress introduce legislation forbidding the shutdown of these memorials during any budget disputes.

You can sign the petition here.

That's very noble and I wish it would work.
Unfortunately, internet petitions aren't legally
recognized in the U.S.
Most of the time the originator is more interested in
your Email address than how you vote on a petition.

What a bunch of horse puckey!

The vets who were on average over 85 years of age just simply wheeled in as the guard opened the site for them to enter!

Thanks for your praise, but then again we could have used your service!

Only a vindictive Liberal could express your words Sarg, the Vets and others want their memorials opened to their families as well as any other's who wish to honor their service and the sacrifice of the fallen.... Only an asshole president who has no real concept of service and sacrifice for country could ever think of closing these sites down while spending more money to keep them closed than they would to leave these open air memorials opened...

Cono Sarg, I think that you are losing your mind!

Someone has yet to tell me, what the heck is a sarg?

As a Vietnam era Navy vet, I am calling on Boehner and the Republicans to open the ENTIRE government.

Good KW, just avoid the extraordinary steps this president took in shutting those parks down.

I just signed. It's ironic that our federal government will only do something good for the people if forced to do so.
