Your Minnesota VFW leadership team is in Kalamazoo, Michigan, October 16-18, for the 2026 VFW Big Ten Conference Annual Meeting. These Comrades serve as delegates to the Conference representing the Minnesota VFW and its members.

They are joined by VFW Big Ten Conference Chairman Curt Hermanson and Vice Chairman David Staehlin, both hailing from Minnesota, and the Minnesota VFW Auxiliary delegation led by Department President Jean Keogh.

The VFW supports many of the veteran, caregiver and survivor provisions Congress is considering in TCAVA.

Our objection is to Section 108, which would change how future claims for tinnitus and sleep apnea are rated to help pay for those provisions.

Veterans should not be used to balance the budget. Period.

Well, here we are. October 1.

Some claimed that VA was definitely going to change the ratings for tinnitus and sleep apnea by the end of the fiscal year so Congress might as well spend those “savings” on TCAVA.

The VFW said the timeline didn’t add up and that a 2022 proposal wasn’t guaranteed to become the final rule as written.

So about those “savings”…

Protect veterans’ earned benefits. Pass TCAVA without making future veterans foot the bill.

Discharge Petition No. 22 for H.R. 2102, the Major Richard Star Act, reached the 218 signatures needed to move forward.

"Congress still must vote on the full Major Richard Star Act when it returns in November. This is the policy we have advocated for since 2020, so we hope that new legislation will not divert from that momentum.” - VFW Washington Office Executive Director Ryan Gallucci

One of our local VFW supporters has a big surplus of snap beans as well as a desire to raise some money for the Honor Flight program. So while supplies last, you can get a quart sized ziploc full of beans for a $5 donation at the post. Get them before they are gone!

🚨 Action Alert: Momentum matters. Congress should not correct one injustice by creating a new one for future veterans. A delayed vote is NOT the finish line. Keep making your voice heard.

Take action TODAY and tell your Representative and both Senators to oppose Section 108 of the Take Care of America's Veterans Act. Urge them to reject this unprecedented pay-for and protect veterans' earned disability compensation.

“For more than 125 years, the VFW has been a fearless advocate for veterans, speaking plainly when elected officials propose policies that threaten the benefits generations of service members have earned through sacrifice. Our opposition to Section 108 reflects that longstanding commitment. Veterans’ benefits are not funding sources or bargaining chips for Congress while they scrounge to score political points.” - VFW National Commander Carol Whitmore https://www.vfw.org/media-and-events/latest-releases/archives/2026/7/vfw-defends-longstanding-tradition-of-political-satire-while-opposing-cuts
