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.
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.
"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.
ICYMI:VA has spent weeks misleading the public about its plans to force homeless veterans into guardianships. Trump's EO last year called for locking up homeless people, including veterans, rather than helping them. Guardianship will not fix the crux of the problems veterans face; they need support.
This week, House Democrats hosted a roundtable discussion on veteran homelessness. Before the Roundtable began, we asked our participants to answer one question: If you could ask Secretary Collins and Secretary Turner to do one thing to help end veteran homelessness, what would it be and why?
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.
H.R 6047 increases benefits for veterans and survivors, but has vets pay for it by imposing fees on VA home loans. 10K vets were forced into foreclosure at Trump's hands. H.R 6047 would only worsen the crisis. Republicans and Rep. Barrett are harming veterans who just want to stay in their homes.
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
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.
Time and time again, the Republican majority has chosen its own priorities over VSO priorities. This week is yet another example. These bills are not bipartisan, we don't know how they will be paid for, and they don't reflect VSO requests. This is hardly a responsible reauthorization process.

The Republican Farm Bill protects companies like Monsanto that dump toxic, cancer-causing pesticides into our food, air, and water. It creates a brand-new liability shield to protect them from the court cases they keep losing. Why? Follow the money.

Too many people feel trapped in a system where life revolves around work. A 4 day week, without loss of pay, would transform how we work, helping people spend more time with their friends and families. I asked the First Minister if he would commit to expanding the 4 day week in the public sector.
