Service members in harm’s way today should not have to watch Congress debate how much of their future benefits should be cut for budget offsets.

Veterans’ benefits are a cost of war, not a source of “savings.”

Honor their sacrifice. Don’t normalize cuts to VA benefits.

Take action and tell Congress to oppose any version of TCAVA that cuts veterans’ earned benefits: https://www.votervoice.net/VFW/Campaigns/138781/Respond

Remember Everyone Deployed.

We wear red as a solemn reminder of the service members who remain deployed, separated from their families and carrying out their missions.

Until they all come home.
