Excerpt:

BENNINGTON, Vt. (NEWS10) – Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders made a stop in Bennington Friday night.

The former democratic presidential candidate was in town to speak with the local American Legion Branch. In front of more than 100 people, he urged for improvements in veteran care.

He doubled down on his request when it comes to veterans’ affairs when he spoke one-on-one with NEWS10 ABC after his speech.

“Our goal is to strengthen it,” he said. “Our goal is to make sure veterans get care in a timely manner.”

Sanders also discussed the Trump Administration and the controversy surrounding the election. ... From there, Sanders talked about refugees, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), and Dreamers.
