The @DeptVetAffairs posted a final rule amending its regulations regarding character-of-discharge determinations, expanding access to VA benefits for some former service members discharged under other than honorable conditions or by special court-martial wwp.news/4bzVgJR
Celebrating 20 years of Soldier Ride, warriors were welcomed to the White House by @FLOTUS. Navy veteran Sharona Young spoke to her brothers and sisters-in-arms about her journey of overcoming her injuries with the help of WWP. Learn more: wwp.news/4dbEjH8
“Warriors never ride alone,” Dr. Biden said. “That's the promise of [@wwp], and as you can see today, it's true. Because this isn't a race; it's a ride. It's not about how fast you go or leaving people in your dust. It's about riding as one." wwp.news/3UxgBxE

25 injured war veterans and caregivers from the east coast are cycling through Washington, DC this week. It’s part of the annual Wounded Warrior Project Soldier Ride: @fox5dc
More than 52,000 veterans, experiencing physical, mental & emotional wounds that forced them to medically retire, would be helped by passage of the Major Richard Star Act. Here's ANOTHER story of how an unjust policy penalizes vets. Pass this bill NOW! wwp.news/4aMwnup
That's @wwp staffer Jeremy Villanueva (middle) working with members of @TheMilCoalition to push for the Major Richard Star Act. Thanks to all of the VSOs involved in this project. We & all veterans appreciate your efforts to pass this critical bill!

Happy 116th birthday, @USArmyReserve! Thank you to those who have fought for our nation’s freedom at home and abroad.
The Veterans Accessibility Advisory Committee Act – introduced by @RepDavidValadao & @RepMcGarvey - would make the @DeptVetAffairs more accessible for veterans. Legislation like this is critical to ensuring veterans’ needs are met and their voices heard. bit.ly/4aXg79q
A month ago, Sen. @MikeCrapo & @SenTester called for Congress to immediately pass the Major Richard Star Act. Each day of inaction only deepens the financial burden on our nation’s injured veterans & their families. It's time to finish the job. Pass the Major Richard Star Act!
We're excited to have Soldier Ride here in DC next week, with warriors riding at the White House, around Annapolis, MD, and in the Lorton, VA area. So many inspiring stories that reflect the strength and perseverance of all warriors!

WATCH: At a @SVACDems hearing focused on women veterans, Chairman @SenatorTester questioned witnesses on his efforts to improve care and benefits for military sexual trauma survivors. His legislation eases the evidentiary burden of proof for VA benefits for MST survivors. 👇
So pleased to see the Senate companion bill to the Veterans Spinal Trauma Access to New Devices (STAND) Act, introduced by @SenatorTester and @JerryMoran: wwp.news/49GJifN The bill provides for annual evaluations, investments in technology and @DeptVetAffairs reporting.
Honored to have @wwp teammate Kirsten Laha-Walsh attend the Congressional Servicewomen & Women Veterans roundtable yesterday with @RepJenKiggans, @RepSherrill, @RepHoulahan & other VSOs. From MST to gender-specific care, we are ready to advance bills that #empowerwomenvets!
Thanks to @RepJackBergman for his leadership in introducing Veterans Spinal Trauma Access to New Devices (STAND) Act (H.R. 6373), which @wwp supports, that would require @DeptVetAffairs to offer annual health evaluations to vets with spinal cord injuries wwp.news/3U0W1V4
More on the Blast Overpressure Safety Act, which @wwp supports, that would call for Service members to receive regular brain function tests and mandate that some weapons be modified to reduce blast exposure risks: wwp.news/3TXmYZH @Militarydotcom
.@wwp is proud to support the Blast Overpressure Safety Act that would better protect service members from the physical and cognitive dangers of shockwaves produced by explosive weapons: wwp.news/3Jgyhas Thank you to @SenatorCollins & @SenAngusKing for their leadership!
Great story by @KING5Seattle about our Women Warrior Roundtable in Tacoma featuring warrior Tina Bigelow. She has relied on @DeptVetAffairs and @wwp for support but said that more needs to be done to help veterans who are afraid to ask for help: wwp.news/3VVstdT
Thousands of veterans who served our country are currently not receiving the benefits they have earned due to an unjust policy. The Major Richard Star Act would fix this and provide veterans with the full benefits they deserve. You can take action now: wwp.news/49FTDZK

Today marks 10 years at @MilitaryTimes for me -- it really is surprising that they haven't found a way to kick me out yet. Many thanks to my patient sources and mostly kind co-workers (they all have terrible sports opinions) for keeping me going.

There ain't no mountain high enough for these warriors! With guidance from a WWP Physical Health and Wellness coach, four warriors and two family support members hiked three summits, each one just over 14,000 feet, in under 10 hours. They felt empowered after this achievement!

Life can throw challenges our way and cause varying levels of stress. Veteran Phil Krabbe was struggling to put food on the table for his family. He nearly took his own life. Since then, he’s achieved financial stability after reaching out to WWP for help. #StressAwarenessDay
Our service members should be able to easily find well-paying jobs upon returning home. Today, I’m excited to introduce the Veterans in STEM Expansion Act to help make it easier for our heroes to pursue careers in science, health care and technology.
I had the honor of being surrounded by many fellow veterans on Monday at the @wwp Women Warriors Summit! Women are the fastest growing population of veterans in our country; it's important they have a voice in Congress. I hope there are many more of us on Capitol Hill soon!
Female veterans, especially those with lingering military injuries, struggle more with loneliness, anxiety and reintegration into civilian life than their male peers, according to new research released by Wounded Warrior Project @wwp via @LeoShane militarytimes.com/veterans/2023/…
