It’s that time of year again. Which can be especially tough for many of us. Especially those of us that were there. But in some ways for anyone that was alive. If you’re struggling, please know that you’re not alone. Call or text 988 or go to 988lifeline.org.

The expansion of VA benefits and services eligibility is massive, and all Veterans should see if it impacts them. burnpits360.org/blogs/news/acc…

Last week, I hosted my annual event, #VeteransUniversity2024, where I heard from veterans across California’s 25th district about the life-changing impacts they’ve experienced from PACT Act benefits.

To our friends and chosen family who continue to fight for those affected by the attacks on September 11th, 2001, we give our sincerest thanks.

This victory is a testament to the power of advocacy and the unwavering dedication to our veterans' health. burnpits360.org/blogs/news/upd…

The people who served did so believing their country would have their back but for some combat-injured veterans that isn’t true. Chairman Senator Jon Tester’s Major Richard Star Act, supported by over 70 Senators, would ensure our heroes receive the retirement benefits they deserve.

— especially if a family is trusting their loved one to join the forces & defend this country. They are giving up their freedom for ours & the least we can do is push these provisions & make sure the Army doesn’t drop the ball again when it comes to accou- rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
