Hello to all my Advocates!
This is a long time program that is very important and together our advocacy continues to make positive changes for our veterans.
We fight to get laws changed and bills passed that will make veterans’ lives better. So get involved, know the issues, visit the VFW website, sign up for Action Corps weekly which allows you to show your support for bills before Congress and will automatically send letters to our representatives for you.
We have to stand up for veterans rights and the benefits they have earned and deserve.
Here are some things that will make us
better advocates and improve our
advocacy efforts:
- Become familiar with the VFW Priority Goals – then share this information with other VFW and Auxiliary members
during meetings or in newsletters. - Know where elected officials stand on veteran issues – then be prepared to draft letters for upcoming legislation.
- Sign up for the VFW Action Corps Weekly – then invite others to sign up.
- Respond to VFW Action Alerts – then spread the word for others to act.
- Get involved with town hall meetings -then encourage others to attend.
- Be sure to vote in all elections – then assist others with the voting process
