House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs Democrats
@democrats-veterans.house.gov
Republicans want veterans to foot the bill, through new VA home loan fees, for other veterans' benefits. Without RM @repmarktakano.bsky.social's amendment to H.R. 6047, tens of thousands more veterans and their families could face foreclosure in Trump's economy.

Veterans have made it clear that they don't want this guardianship program, and we stand with them. Guardianship would strip veterans of their autonomy, taking away their right to...

Couldn't agree more, @deluzio.house.gov. VA shouldn't be dismantled, it should be strengthened. Privatization just shifts costs onto veterans and risks access to care. When every d...

In case it wasn't clear, Mr. President, veterans don't want a vanity arch that will block the view of Arlington National Cemetery. We read their concerns. You should, too.

"Cut, after cut, after cut, with no analysis of how veteran care and benefits will be affected." - @ramirez.house.gov

Family & Medical Leave (FMLA) ensures VA employees can take the time they need to care for their family members. But Sec Collin's VA believes in-laws shouldn't be counted as family. We must pass @ramirez.house.gov's HR 7948 to ensure VA employees can care for all members of their family when needed.
Would you trust a physician who cites Google or an AI tool? VA employees who are being pushed to make decisions faster are relying on Google and WebMD to justify their claims decisions and are citing those “sources” in the letters they send to veterans.
Soon, the Senate is voting on a resolution to overturn the Trump admin's near-total ban on abortion care and counseling for veterans who receive their healthcare from VA. Veterans deserve access to a full range of reproductive healthcare at VA. The Senate must vote in support of veterans.
Veterans need, want, and deserve timely decisions on their claims. Speed should not be the goal; accuracy and delivering benefits should be the main focus. We must NEVER sacrifice the quality of care or service for the speed of delivery.
"Frankly, I think it's going to lead to worse outcomes for the most vulnerable of our veterans." - @ramirez.house.gov Forcing veterans into guardianships isn't the solution. We must instead ensure veterans have access to the treatment, housing, and services they deserve.
Veterans, VSO leaders, and Members of Congress have all heard the same thing—denial numbers and claim processing errors are up. We need to ask more than, "How fast are claims moving?" We need to ask, "How well are we serving veterans in that process?"
Veterans turn to the Veterans Readiness and Employment program when they're trying to rebuild their futures. They want stability and independence. They shouldn't face additional delays in achieving the future they dream of. We must improve and streamline the VR&E program today.
Mr. Zenner from the LA County Dept. of Military & Veteran Affairs shared his vision to improve conditions for vets at the National Soldiers' Home. His ask: an on-site Veterans Treatment Court, more housing options, & the elimination of jurisdictional security gaps that are holding the campus back.
The best way to learn how to serve future generations of veterans is to listen to veterans themselves. Before our Roundtable discussion last week, we asked Ben Jeffrey, a veteran who experienced homelessness firsthand, to answer one question for us. Here's what he had to say.
Veterans served this country and fought for our freedom. Yet, veterans have less access to fertility care than Members of Congress—why? Listen to Georgette Kerr with American Society for Reproductive Medicine, addressing this reality at our IVF roundtable last month.

Vermont's Journey: Oregon is on track to be the fist state to transition to universal health care, but we are far from the first or only state to make this attempt. Between 2011 and 2014, Vermont made an amazing attempt, but ultimately did not succeed. In Oregon, we must consider the lessons.
