When Americans raise their right hand and volunteer to serve, this Nation makes a solemn promise: If they are wounded, become ill, or die in service, America will care for them and their families. #VFWDC2026 #VFWTestimony #HonorTheContract

On June 12, 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act into law, opening the door for women to serve permanently as full-time members of the U.S. Armed Forces. We salute all women veterans, past, present and future, and say “thank you” for your service to our great nation. news.va.gov/147161/women-vet…

On this Friday and every day in between, we pause to remember the brave men and women who are currently deployed; our family members and loved ones and the many individuals we don’t know, all who have chosen service over self. We #RememberEveryoneDeployed: Until they all come home.

“The VFW strongly opposes the Take Care of America's Veterans Act as currently drafted because it asks future disabled veterans to bear the cost of expanding benefits through changing the VA rating schedule for tinnitus and obstructive sleep apnea which are common conditions associated with combat poly trauma. We have long maintained that veterans' benefits are an earned obligation of the nation, a promise made through the military service contract, and should not be financed through offsets, fee increases or reductions that place additional burdens on veterans, military families and survivors.” - VFW National Commander Carol Whitmore vfw.org/media-and-events/lat… #VFW #HonorTheContract

‼️ Action Alert‼️ Congress is considering legislation that would expand some veterans' programs by changing disability ratings for tinnitus and obstructive sleep apnea. According to VA estimates, those changes could affect up to 1.5 million veterans and reduce disability compensation by approximately $57 billion over the next 10 years. Veterans should not pay for veterans' benefits. Take action today and tell Congress to Honor the Contract and protect earned disability compensation: votervoice.net/VFW/Campaigns… #HonorTheContract #VFW #Veterans #VeteranAdvocacy #ProtectVeteransBenefits
