The VA is a lifeline, but staffing cuts are turning it into a bottleneck.
With 28,000 jobs lost across the agency, Black veterans in Atlanta are facing unprecedented delays in core services like mental health and housing assistance.
Ed and Common Defense are fighting back.

He will be a strong democracy advocate to help ensure free and fair elections. Also he is a much needed expert voice at this time in regards to the NATO alliance. He will help restore America's role in the world as a leader in the fight for global democracy. VFRL is honored to support his candidacy.
Jason will be an incredible fighter for the veteran community and will work tirelessly to improve the VA and make sure disabled veterans get their full compensation and benefits that they deserve. Next, he will be a voice to push back against the current corruption in DC.
He also later served as the Executive Officer of the NATO Operations and Policy Division. He led the NATO Initial Planning and Assessment Team to Iraq, establishing the NATO Training and Capacity Building in Iraq Activity.

Veterans For Responsible Leadership
At Veterans for Responsible Leadership, we value integrity and action over empty words. Quentin has demonstrated both throughout his adult life.
Public office isn’t a ladder for him — it’s a continuation of service.
As a veteran, community activist, and youth coach, he has poured into young people across Fayette County and beyond. I have personally witnessed it. His life reflects consistent, selfless service.

Having spent a year criticizing, insulting and threatening European leaders, Donald Trump now sees the value of having friends in strategically important places.
That is, if they have military assets he can use.
This morning my thoughts are with the six fallen service members and their families.
Check out the number of votes.
The strategic objectives for this war are as clear as mud.
Grieving for the four American service members known so far to have been killed in action, and praying for the families of these patriots who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
It’s not the president’s job to know what the fuck he is trying to do, Lindsey Graham?
Is 'Operation Epic Fury' a strategic necessity or a 'distraction bomb'? 💣 As the U.S. and Israel launch massive strikes on Iran, Bobby Jones reminds us that the unreleased Epstein files remain in the shadows…. exactly what Trump wants.

Like everything else he’s done since returning to power, Trump’s war with Iran is incredibly unpopular.
Congress has a constitutional obligation to assert its war powers immediately and block any further military action. Our elected officials must hear from us: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...
Our military deserves our support. Trump, Hegseth, and the Republican Doormat Congress are failing our heroic service members and their families. I won't.

I join with Americans in mourning the loss of our heroic servicemembers. Sending love and prayers to their families.
It’s a reminder of the dangerous things we ask our men and women to do, and why I take my oversight responsibility as a Member of Congress so seriously.
He is running against incumbent Cory Mills, whose professional and personal conduct has drawn bipartisan scrutiny and raised serious questions about character, transparency, and judgment. Florida’s 7th District faces a clear contrast: chaos or competence.
