Project 2025 is a dealbreaker for America's veterans.
It's the Trump/Vance playbook they intend to implement if they win the White House – and it will cost veterans and servicemembers vital benefits and services.
Trump and Vance will squeeze, limit, and de-fund federal agencies and programs until there's almost no value left in them at all. Here's what they've got planned for veterans and their families if they win:
- Force VA hospitals to see more patients per day, causing lower quality of care and less time with doctors
- Slash disability benefits for future servicemembers who become injured in order to "cut costs"
- Drastically reduce the federal workforce, of which about 30% is made up of veterans
- Downsize, outsource, and even close VA hospitals and clinics, pawning patients off for care at expensive private providers
- Increase automation at the Veterans Benefits Administration so more veterans are stuck navigating chatbots and phone systems instead of talking to a live person
- Privatize Social Security benefits, a crucial lifeline and supplement for rural and older Americans
Trump and Vance do not represent the values of rural Americans, veterans, or servicemembers.
We have the opportunity in November to pay out on the promise we made to our men and women in the military. And we intend to fight for the leaders who are going to fund and support the care, benefits, and services that our veterans deserve. Anything less is unacceptable.
