In a series of nationwide protests, veterans are mobilizing against planned cuts to the Department of Veterans Affairs, rallying in cities across the country, including Washington, D.C., La Jolla, and Burnsville. The demonstrations, sparked by proposed cuts under the Trump administration that threaten to reduce staff and services, have drawn thousands, including a 100-year-old WWII veteran who expressed horror at the potential impact on the care veterans receive. Activists and VA employees are voicing their concerns over understaffing and reduced benefits, dubbing the reforms as betrayals to those who served the nation. With significant public support, veterans advocate for the preservation of their vital services, urging leaders to uphold their promises. On D-Day, a historic rally is set to reinforce these demands, highlighting a legacy of veterans fighting for their rights and benefits.
