Following his vote in favor of the legislation, he released a statement highlighting the importance of supporting veterans and active-duty military personnel.

Cole emphasized his commitment to supporting veterans and strengthening national defense. “My vote in favor of this bill is simple: I support our veterans, our troops, and strengthening the defense of the United States. I am proud to represent so many veterans in Oklahoma’s fourth district and I will always stand up for our servicemembers, both past and present.”
