Celebrating the legacy of VOI Patron Saint Harry Belafonte. Known for his acting and music, Mr. Belafonte was also a Navy veteran and vocal activist during the Civil Rights Movement and beyond.
Thank you for your service on behalf of us all. You stand relieved, we have the watch

BREAKING: The Supreme Court agreed to hear Moore v Harper, an appeal advocating for extreme interpretation of the Constitution that could make it easier for state legislatures to suppress the vote, draw unfair election districts, enable partisan interference in ballot counting.

"Steve Sadow knew a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade was coming. He wants to make sure anyone prosecuted because of an abortion gets the best defense possible, free of charge."

Trump knew that he had lost. His legal team knew he had lost and yet he continued to make plans for #January6th and continued to try to overturn the election and attack our democracy. We can’t let him get away with this. #Jan6Justice #VetsForDemocracy

Look, we make promises to the men and women who put on the uniform that we'd take care of them when they got back from war.
If we're not willing to uphold our promise and take care of our toxic-exposed veterans, we should've never sent them into battle to begin with.

A HUGE #IAVA thank you to @SenatorTester and Senator @JerryMoran for you bipartisanship on the #HonoringOurPACTAct and your steadfast support of the veteran community. #toxicexposures

Dr. Kate Hendricks Thomas spent her last days fighting for toxic exposure legislation.
The Dr. Kate Hendricks Thomas SERVICE Act – which was just signed into law – ensures that veterans who served near a burn pit can get a mammography screening by a VA healthcare provider.

This man @jonstewart right here is the epitome of American Patriot. 3 years ago he made a promise to my husband, to our military, survivors and families. Thank you and your family for your selfless support and commitment. #warriorethos #burnpits #pactact

It wasn't fun getting heckled by forced-birthers, but this badass group of women vets, in addition to a bunch of allies, had a great time despite! #Vets4Choice

There's no question this legislation is historic, but this isn't rewriting our promises to veterans—it's upholding the promises made to them for answering the call of duty to defend this nation.

Great writing by @_jenburch in @thehill explaining why passing the PACT Act is vital - both for her personally and for all veterans.
