Reaching out to homeless veterans

NORTH PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey marked Veterans Day in North Philadelphia Wednesday morning.

Senator Casey met with 150 homeless veterans at Hancock Manor, then helped serve them breakfast.

It's home to Impact Services, an organization that helps hundreds of vets in the Philadelphia area each year.

Casey said he plans to advocate for legislation that would eliminate disability claim backlogs at V.A. offices around the country
