GOP: Pro-War, Anti-Veteran

New sticker from the VoteVets Store John - The Grand Old Party. Once upon a time, it was the party of Lincoln, of Teddy Roosevelt and of Dwight Eisenhower. And now, it is the fringe MAGA party that voted for a budget that would gut health care and support for our Veterans. 217 of them voted for…

Sign our letter: Tell McCarthy to stop threatening our Veterans

John, this is urgent. VoteVets was on the Hill yesterday with our Congressional allies slamming the GOP for their draconian cuts to Veterans’ care. And today, we’re sending a letter to Speaker McCarthy. Our message: This brinkmanship has to stop. If McCarthy’s bill becomes law we’d see a $30 …

It’s up to us to stop them. We’re seeing it already, John. It was just this Wednesday that the House GOP passed a bill cutting the VA’s budget by $30 billion, and they’re already trying to cover their tracks. Republicans in the House are telling anybody that will listen that this cut — a cut o…

McCarthy wants to cut $30 billion from the VA

It’s time to go on offense. We’ve got some bad news, John. McCarthy, his MAGA allies, and the House GOP are ready to shut down the government — to cause a global financial crisis — unless they get to slash the VA’s budget by $30 billion dollars. For a party that calls themselves “pro-Militar…

SIGNATURE NEEDED: Fight back against $30 BILLION in cuts to the VA

If you send our troops to war, you damn well better care for them when they come back. John — $30 BILLION. That’s the amount McCarthy and his MAGA allies want to cut the VA by. It’s a cut of 22%. Here’s what it means: 81,000 jobs lost. Longer wait times. Longer backlogs. Millions of Veteran…
