A critical provision hidden in state law actively hurts our veterans. Part IV (Section 4) of Session Law 2025-72 (SB 118) creates a state-level loophole that helps unaccredited, for-profit companies charge disabled veterans steep fees for filing initial VA disability claims.

This isn't just wrong—it flies in the face of federal law and a major local court victory:

It Violates Federal Law: Under 38 U.S.C. Chapter 59, strictly mandates that no individual may assist veterans with claims unless accredited by the VA, and completely bans charging fees for initial claims applications.
It Defies Federal Court Precedent: On May 20, 2026, a federal judge right here in North Carolina ruled in Ford v. Veterans Guardian (Case 1:23-cv-00756-CCE-LPA) that these unaccredited "consulting" fee models are unlawful. Read the full federal court decision

A HUGE thank you to everyone who supported this weekend. It was a busy weekend. We have the Potato festival and membership drive, Peace Officer Memorial Day, Virginia VFW riders coming to our Post and a Celebration of life for one of our VFW members and CVMA. We also moved our pool tables and shuffleboard table out of the pool room and removed the hot water heater and toilets in preparation for the floors. We supported our community, our Post and other organizations. It was jammed packed but a group of our Comrades and Auxiliary (along with District Auxiliary) supported all these events flawlessly and coordinated everything like professionals. Also shout out to VFW 6060 Honor guard who were supporting as always. If you would like to become an Honor Guard member just ask. It is worth it.
