🇺🇸 **WEST VIRGINIA VETERANS — IT'S TIME TO MAKE OUR VOICES HEARD!** 🇺🇸
**THE VFW DEPARTMENT OF WEST VIRGINIA CALLS ON CONGRESS TO PASS THE CLEAN MAJOR RICHARD STAR ACT!**
Our combat-injured veterans have already paid a tremendous price in service to our nation. They should not have to fight another battle to receive the benefits they have earned.
The **Major Richard Star Act** would help ensure that eligible combat-injured veterans receive the military retirement pay and VA disability compensation they have earned through their service and sacrifice.
⚠️ **WE MUST ALSO PROTECT FUTURE VETERANS!**
We urge Congress to reject Section 108 of the *Caring for Our Veterans Act (TCAVA)* unless the provision reducing disability compensation for certain future veterans is removed.
🇺🇸 **OUR MESSAGE TO CONGRESS IS CLEAR:**
✅ **VOTE YES** on the clean, standalone Major Richard Star Act.
❌ **VOTE NO** on legislation that reduces earned disability benefits for future veterans.
📢 **WEST VIRGINIA VETERANS, FAMILIES, AND SUPPORTERS — TAKE ACTION!**
Contact your U.S. Senators and Representatives. Tell them to stand with America's veterans, honor the promises made to those who served, and protect the benefits they have earned.
