🇺🇸 **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.

So sorry to hear this news.
West Virginia is keeping C**t Drouillard and his family in our prayers!

It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we share the unexpected passing of Emily Drouillard, beloved wife of our VFW Department of Alabama State Commander, C**t Drouillard.

During this incredibly difficult time, we ask that you keep Commander Drouillard and his family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this heartbreaking loss.

The VFW is more than an organization; we are a family. In times of sorrow, we stand together to offer strength, compassion, and unwavering support to one another. We encourage our VFW family across Alabama to rally around Commander Drouillard and his loved ones during their time of need.

Please respect the family's privacy as they grieve. Information regarding services and arrangements will be shared as it becomes available and with the family's permission.

** In lieu of flowers, please consider a contribution in memoriam of Emily Drouillard for the VFW Post 3128 Auxiliary.

Please pass all Department of Alabama VFW business matters to [email protected].
