ICYMI: Trump says government should fund one thing: the military. His budget follows through. Massive defense increases send billions to contractors and corporate profits, while cutting healthcare and basic services.

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...

For veterans' safety, it's imperative that VA never use AI as the final review tool for veterans' benefits. VA swore under oath today that a human will always complete the final re...

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.

Veterans and their survivors deserve better. Under President Trump, VA has stonewalled Congress, no answers, no transparency, just deliberate obstruction. How can veterans trust an agency that hides the truth from everyone?
Tonight, Senators will vote to uphold or overturn Trump's cruel and dangerous ban on abortion care and counseling for veterans who receive their healthcare through VA. They must vote to restore veterans' rights.
Veterans' disability claim denial rates are up, and the data we received from VA this month shows that. We should never sacrifice the type of care we provide veterans, especially when examining their paperwork to decide their disability benefits. See the numbers for yourself.
Placing veterans in guardianships as a policy response to a housing challenge makes it far less likely that veterans will come to seek care. Guardianships are extremely difficult to get out of, as Eric points out; it took Britney Spears 7 years to get out of hers. How long will it take a veteran?
Surviving military spouses shouldn't face penalties for remarrying after loss. They and their families cannot wait any longer; Congress must pass the Love Lives on Act NOW.
🚨Congress reconvenes TOMORROW. Veterans, call your members NOW and urge them to sign the discharge petition. We have 157 signatures. We only need 61 more to force a vote on the House Floor. It's time to #PasstheMajorRichardStarAct! ➡️ Has your Member signed? Visit: clerk.house.gov/DischargePet...
Trump and his VA Secretary are trying to strip veterans of the freedoms they fought for. Homeless veterans should not be forced into guardianships. These veterans aren’t without hope. They deserve care and services, not confinement and shame. This VA is deterring veterans from seeking VA care.
The House Committee on Veterans' Affairs exists to hold VA accountable and deliver results for those who served—our nation's veterans. The mission is the veteran, and we must not lose sight of that.
Veterans who survive sexual assault need to be able to turn to VA for support. H.R. 5203, led by @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social, would bolster VA facilities' ability to care for veterans after sexual assault. As a provider, she knows we must deliver compassionate & competent care.
At a time when Republicans are spending billions of dollars on wars of choice, tax cuts for the rich, ICE, and ballrooms, it is unbelievable that Republicans want to charge veterans for veterans' benefits. Congress should focus on reducing veterans' financial burden, not increasing it.
This is so bad. Who else is sick and tired of Donald Trump’s waste, fraud, and abuse? He doesn’t give a shit about anybody except himself and his rich buddies. The federal budget and our tax dollars are just his personal burn pile.

Advokatica Miroslava Popadić kaže da MUP nije dostavio nijedan pisani dokaz, ni u odgovoru na tužbu, ni na pripremnom ročištu. Jedina dokazna sredstva koja je policija predložila su iskazi dvojice dekana koji su je i pozvali u kampus.

Virginia - early voting starts tomorrow! Just like California's Prop 50 which was approved by 65% of voters, Virginia is trying to keep the balance in Congress. Trump needs to cheat the Midterms. Prevent Trump from stealing Democratic seats! #VirginiaIsForVotingYes

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.

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. 🧡

Pete Buttigieg is a member of the LGBTQ community & has advocated for trans people, especially kids, to participate in sports. He did this as a federal official serving in the President’s Cabinet in front of millions on national TV. What gives you that impression He has abandoned them now?
