[House Committee on Veterans' Affairs @HouseVetAffairs]

Since the start of the 119th Congress, House Republicans have gone to work – from leading and passing bills that expand economic opportunity for veterans – to holding hearings to ensure veterans get the healthcare care they deserve.

On this National Day of the Deployed, we honor the brave men and women serving our nation around the world, standing on the front lines to defend our freedoms.

We are grateful for their courage, dedication, and the sacrifices they make to keep America safe. 🇺🇸

[Congresswoman Jen Kiggans @RepJenKiggans]

I joined the Armed Services YMCA of Hampton Roads for their Military Family Festival and Resource Fair in Virginia Beach today…! Our military families make tremendous sacrifices in service to our nation, and events like this are a great way to bring our community together while connecting families with valuable resources and support. Thank you to the @asymca and everyone who helped make this special day possible for our military families…!

[House Committee on Veterans' Affairs @HouseVetAffairs]

The Take Care of America’s Veterans Act puts Gold Star families first – by strengthening survivor benefits and increasing veterans’ access to healthcare – no matter where they live.

Thank you for your leadership, @RepMMM! 🇺🇸👏

[Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D. @RepMMM]

It’s always an honor to meet with Iowa Gold Star Families and hear their stories of loved ones lost through military service and sacrifice.

I’m grateful to listen to their experiences and for the opportunity to discuss how we can continue strengthening benefits, protections, and support for surviving families.

They strongly urged Congress to pass the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act and deliver the support they earned.

[House Committee on Veterans' Affairs @HouseVetAffairs]

The Take Care of America’s Veterans Act includes 60+ bipartisan bills, including the Sharri Briley and Eric Edmundson Veterans Benefits Expansion Act.

House Republicans – like @RepTomBarrett – are leading the charge to make sure severely disabled veterans and survivors get the support they need.

House Republicans' number one priority is putting veterans first – including making sure VA facilities nationwide meet the needs of veterans and their families. 💪

This morning, I spoke at the Veteran Stand Down, a welcoming place where homeless and at-risk veterans can connect with caring community members, access essential services, and take meaningful steps toward stable housing and improved well-being.

Our #CO05 casework team was one of the many groups there as a resource for our veterans needing help with a federal agency.

El Paso County is home to one of the largest veteran populations in the nation, and it was inspiring to see so many in our community come out to help.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

As an Army veteran and former police officer, I know how important it is for families and veterans to have access to the resources they need when times get tough.

It was great visiting Weld Project Connect in Greeley, where more than 70 FREE services are available to help Coloradans get back on their feet.

Thank you to everyone making this possible! 🇺🇸

"Serving veterans also means fighting for them in Washington and ensuring our nation keeps its promises to those who served and to their families, caregivers and survivors. That is why @AMVETSHQ strongly supports the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act."

House Republicans are laser-focused on rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse.

Economic Opportunity Chairman @RepVanOrden led a hearing earlier this year on cutting fraud in VA’s VR&E program to safeguard this benefit for disabled veterans – not bureaucrats.

[Congressman Juan Ciscomani @RepCiscomani]

Incredibly grateful to my Veteran Advisory Council for their continued partnership in making sure the needs of our local veterans are heard and addressed in Washington. Those who served our nation deserve our FULL support, and I will continue working to ensure their voices are heard and their sacrifices honored 🇺🇸

[Congressman Juan Ciscomani @RepCiscomani]

Since 2024, I have honored over 170 hometown heroes through our Veteran Servant Leader Award Ceremony, recognizing the veterans who continue to make a difference in our communities.

It is truly a privilege to recognize their sacrifices and ensure their service is never forgotten 🇺🇸

[House Committee on Veterans' Affairs @HouseVetAffairs]

.@RepJenKiggans represents one of the largest populations of veterans in the nation.

That’s why she voted for the Working Families Tax Cuts – to ensure veteran small business owners and workers – in districts like hers – can keep more of their hard-earned money.

@TaxCuts 👇

[Congresswoman Jen Kiggans @RepJenKiggans]

I serve in a district with one of the largest veteran populations in the country. The people in my district are regular everyday Americans who put service to country first.

The wins in the One Big Beautiful Bill are important to the veterans in my district. We are workers, we are small business owners, we are parents, we are servicemembers, and we are people who care about community safety.

Thank you @SpeakerJohnson and Chairwoman @RepLisaMcClain for having me!

[Ashley Hinson @RepAshleyHinson]

My team was proud to welcome the Eastern Iowa Honor Flight to the WWII Memorial this week in our nation's capital! We're so thankful for their service - God bless our heroes. 🇺🇸

[Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D. @RepMMM]

Veterans stepped up for us, and they deserve care and opportunity when they come home. Great to join the Quad Cities Veterans Network in Davenport, connecting veterans with employers, services, and each other. I will always fight to expand their access to mental health services and health care. 🇺🇸

[House Committee on Veterans' Affairs @HouseVetAffairs]

House Republicans have put veterans and their families first by passing the:

💪 VA Home Loan Program Reform Act
💪 Veterans Community Care Scheduling Improvement Act
💪 Montgomery GI Bill Selected Reserved Tuition Fairness Act
💪 Rural Veterans’ Improved Access to Benefits Act
💪 Veterans 2A Protection Act

Real results that make a difference in families’ day-to-day lives.

[Congresswoman Jen Kiggans @RepJenKiggans]

I was proud to participate in the ribbon cutting for the new Warriors Taphouse location at @FlyORF this morning! Founded by three individuals with strong ties to our military community, Warriors Taphouse is dedicated to honoring our servicemembers, veterans, and their families while giving back to organizations that support them. Congratulations to the entire @warriorstap team on this exciting expansion, and thank you for your continued commitment to our military community here in Hampton Roads…!

1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer – but medical advancements have shown that early detection can save lives.

VA proudly provides mammogram screenings to detect breast cancer early to ensure every woman veteran can access the appropriate care and treatment.

During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, learn more about the resources available to you through VA 🩷
