Episode 81: Cole Lyle, Executive Director of Mission Roll Call

This week we welcome Cole Lyle, Executive Director of Mission Roll Call.  Prior to Mission Roll Call, Cole worked as an advisor to senior leadership at the VA and on veteran policy in the United States Senate.  As a veteran and advocate, Cole uses his experience in both fields to highlight the voices of 1.4 million members in MRC's network to advocate for veteran's issues across the United States.  Cole is uniquely positioned to lead MRC as he knows personally the struggles of military members and veterans.  From fighting on the ground in Afghanistan to battling PTSD, and then helping write the PAWs Act after his life was changed thanks to his service dog, Kaya - Cole knows the ups and downs of veteran life.  Traditional advocacy groups require veterans to voice their opinions through layers of bureaucracy at their local, state, and national levels, where veterans lose their voice.  Using modern technology, Mission Roll Call hears the unfiltered voice of veterans across America and tells their collective story directly to lawmakers and interest groups.  Roughly half of veterans are unaffiliated with the VA or any veteran service organization.  Mission Roll Call is the first of its kind: a movement that gives every veteran a voice on the issues that are most important to them.  It is a community where veterans and their families share stories, voice concerns, and present solutions for their benefit.  So if you are ready to have your voice heard from Main Street to Washington...this is the episode for you.
