Another attempt to contact my congressman

So I have tried contacting my congressman, Pete Stark, and with no reply to try to help me deal with the VA... so here is what I sent him:

Dear Mr. Stark,

I emailed you a while back and have still to receive an email, or phone call back from you or your office.

I am a veteran of war who recently started to attend school under the new benefits. The benefits are great but I have not seen a dime of the money owed to me. I received the emergency check to catch up on some bills but I am falling behind once again. I have 4 children and it is hard to provide with jobs being limited and me going to school full time. I sure hope there is a way you can put some pressure on the VA since I have been waiting for them to pay me and my school since August 6th. I have had individuals tell me that they have applied for the same benefit this month and have already received their checks and others who have applied in late August and have their checks. I have called numerous of times and no one wants to help. I sure hope trying to contact a congressman to help some one who has defended his country with pride is not the same way.

Thank you for reviewing my letter and thank you for any help you may be able to provide.
