Veterans should not be at risk. Take a few minutes and let your officials know what you think about them considering to remove benefits.

‼️ 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: https://votervoice.net/VFW/Campaigns/138035/Respond

Today, members of VFW Post 5066 had the privilege of honoring the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice during the Vietnam War by participating in the es**rt of the Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall from Bumpus Harley-Davidson Memphis to Olive Branch, Mississippi.

With motorcycles stretching for miles, veterans, riders, and supporters came together to ensure these heroes were remembered and honored. It was a powerful reminder that while many years have passed, the sacrifices of our fallen will never be forgotten.

The Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall is now being set up at the George M. Harrison Municipal Soccer Complex in Olive Branch, where it will be on display for the public to visit, reflect, and pay their respects to those who gave their lives in service to our nation.

We encourage everyone to take the opportunity to visit this moving tribute and remember the brave Americans whose names are etched into our nation's history.
"All gave some, some gave all."
