Poll: Sequestration has hurt military's trust for political leaders

A new study on military families released Thursday found that sequestration is more than just a Washington buzzword.

More than a quarter of the troops, family members and veterans who responded to the Blue Star Families 2016 Military Family Lifestyle Survey said they "felt changes in benefits, budget cuts and sequestration illustrated that commitments are not being kept for those who serve." Only 19 percent of military families say they would recommend serving in the military to others "if the current trend of cutting benefits continues."
