LEGISLATIVE

Legislative- This purpose of this program is to urge our legislators to preserve veterans’ rights and entitlements and to advocate a strong national defense.
 
  • Focus on the urgency to meet some, if not all, of the 2023 VFW Priority Goals. Be sure that you are knowledgeable about the goals. As legislative advocates for veterans, the Priority Goals are our guide when talking with legislators about veterans’ issues.
  • Respond to any alerts you receive as part of Action Corps. Keep in touch with your elected officials. Keep the mantra that "all politics are local” foremost in your work.
  • Know who your elected officials are and contact them to end sequestration NOW. Remember these individuals work for us. We need to unite and make our voices heard that we want, no, we insist, on what is best for those who defended our country and continue to do so.
