Veterans Deserve Respect, Not Emilia Sykes’ Political Games

November 10, 2025

As Ohioans prepare to honor America’s heroes this Veterans Day, we’re reminded that our service members deserve respect and reliable support. Emilia Sykes rejected that principle, choosing political games over paying and supporting the men and women who serve our nation. President Trump stepped in to ensure our heroes received their checks, even while Sykes left them out to dry. 

“Our veterans and service members should never be used as political leverage. They deserve paychecks, support, and gratitude, not Emilia Sykes’ partisan games.” — NRCC Spokesman Zach Bannon
