Caring for veterans means ensuring all veterans have a place to call home. @repdexteror.bsky.social's Every Veteran Housed Act allows veterans with other than honorable discharges get the housing benefits and supportive services they deserve.

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.

Trump ended the VASP program last year, leaving thousands of families at risk. Since then, 10,000 veteran families have fallen into foreclosure, 90,000 are at risk. Trump started an unwanted war while failing those who have already served. Our government must work for those who fought to protect it.
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.
The admin wants money for a war, but where's the funding needed to tackle veterans' benefits? Trump's creating veterans without preparing for them. 👉 RM @repmarktakano.bsky.social knows exactly how he would spend $200 Billion on veterans, survivors, and their families if that were ever an option.
Memorial Day is a reminder for us to reflect on and pay tribute to the stories of our lost servicemembers. To the families who have lost a loved one in service, our nation can never repay our debt to you or make up for your loss. Our hearts are with you on this day.
Access to IVF & abortion care is critical. "Veterans have risked their lives to protect our rights and freedoms, and to deny theirs, including their ability to access the fertility healthcare they need to build the families they want, is inexcusable." - Karla Torres, Center for Reproductive Rights
As Dr. Ryan pointed out at our IVF roundtable, proving a connection between women veterans' infertility and their military service is difficult. Women veterans often spend their peak reproductive years in service. They deserve access to reproductive and infertility care once they leave service.
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 decide when and how they receive care. Veterans did not fight for our freedom only to have their own taken away.
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.
It seems last week's VA witness had a hard time answering one simple question: Did the VASP program keep veterans in their homes and save them from foreclosure?
Secretary Collins seems to be in a race to tear down VA from within. He has created a toxic work environment, eliminated collective bargaining rights, and demeaned his employees. Instead of being a Secretary who builds up his employees, he's tearing them down.

6 months earlier.... This was BEFORE all the nonsense he pulled online, the leaks to his favourite "journalists", him stitching up WBD and Tony Khan before the Collision press-release. Every hint at him was booed, or given a mixed reaction. No one wanted him back, including himself.
Good Monday morning, friends 🕶🔆 I hate a busy Monday, and that is unfortunately exactly what i have today😭 I'm gonna need two giggles to make it through today🤭🥳 So here is the first giggle!! #SheShed #ManicMonday 1/2
Your brain is always scanning for safety in relationships. So when someone brings calm, consistency, and stability, your body recognizes it. It might feel unfamiliar at first, especially if you’re used to intensity. But that doesn’t mean it’s boring. It means it’s sustainable. #relationshipadvice

Elon Musk dropping Farage for not being far enough right means he's pushing Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain over on X-Twitter. Torn between happiness that he's splitting the far-right rotters and taking votes from Reform UK, and worry about all the people his reach could influence into full fash.

Fam, I've been hearing quite a bit about the new Clone Wars Ahsoka Tano skin that came out in Fortnite. It's been on my mind for a few days since I heard about her, so I'm going to see if can install and play the mobile version of Fortnite and earn her before the event ends. Wish me luck, Fam. 🧡
